Ask HN: Degree apprenticeships in engineering, do they exist?

What kind of engineering? For software engineering, in the UK this exists: https://www.ada.ac.uk/apprentices/

I think there are others. For other kinds of engineering I don't know, but I'm sure the search engines do.

I do see a few posted here and there but I've never actually met anyone that is doing one or has completed one. They are fairly new so maybe that's why but it seems like people are talking about degree apprenticeships and no one actually knows what they are like or how to get into them. Specifically I'm looking for degree apprenticeships in embedded systems engineering. Thanks for the link, this is great.

I also know of https://www.aston.ac.uk/degree-apprenticeship-programmes

But really this is something you should search up yourself to follow your particular interests + constraints.

I've worked with people from Ada. Some were slackers, but the people I worked with directly were great. They were still studying, so not very experienced but keen to learn and improve. Very applied / practical focus, which has advantages and drawbacks.
