Students from all around the world will be able to take online classes from University of Connecticut's professors as part of the two master's programmes in engineering offered by the university's School of Engineering.
International students will get the opportunity to undertake a six-month paid internship for credit with a London-based company, which the collaborators claim will help them enhance both professional and practical abilities.
According to Yuhang Rong, associate vice president for Global Affairs at UConn, this programme is an extraordinarily high-estimated option for the online MEng programme.

The University of Connecticut will create a portfolio of a British engineering conglomerate through its long-term partner Anglo Educational Services in London, as well as additional UK partners.
This programme will assist students in putting what they have studied into practice and potentially become long-term contributions to their research domain. It offers students exposure to a dynamic global environment.
Data Science and Advanced Systems Engineering are two one-year programmes that will begin in the fall of 2022.
Paid internships will undoubtedly boost the programme's equal accessibility to a broader spectrum of students, as per Rong.
Steve Lowy, CEO of AES in London, stated that the UK city provides a fantastic learning and technological environment.
This is an opportunity for students to collaborate with UConn Engineering partners to create something very spectacular that will provide them with truly immersive learning and working perspective, said Lowy.
