The School of Engineering at The University of Edinburgh has an agreement with several Chinese universities which allows students to study engineering for two years in China and then transfer to The University of Edinburgh to complete a further two years of study. This is known as a "2+2" agreement.

On successful completion of the 4th year at Edinburgh, the students graduate with a Bachelor of Engineering degree awarded by The University of Edinburgh. In some cases students can stay on for a further year of study and receive a MEng instead, this decision is made at the end of third year in conjunction with the student's director of study.

This arrangement is currently in place with the following eight universities, but more may be added in due course:

• Dalian University of Technology (Dalian)
• The Liaoning Shihua University (Fushun)
• Nanjing Aeronautics and Astronautics University (Nanjing)
• North China Electric Power University (Beijing)
• South China University of Technology (Guangzhou)
• Tianjin University (Tianjin)
• Xiamen University (Xiamen)
• Harbin Engineering University (Harbin)
