      There are lots of universities offering that subject, and you can check their ratings – each year different places produce ratings which show how good each place is, in terms of what the students think, and what the prospects for jobs are afterwards, as well as some other categories. Then you can make a shortlist, and go and see them – you want somewhere that feels right, where you think you’ll be happy. Also look at places that do general engineering, and see if they offer the chance to specialise later on – sometimes you find that another bit of engineering is really what you enjoy 🙂 (I did that with physics – I thought I wanted astrophysics, but found I enjoyed other bits more).
