<p>Ok, so I'm planning to do my under graduation from a UK uni. As we all know that UK undergrad is generally 3 years
(BA/BSc/BEng) and all. I want to do Post grad from a respected US uni (Ivies/UChic/UCs/Purdue/UMich etc etc etc). Do these US unis recognize 3 year undergrad UK qualifications ? Please help.. Please :-S :-< </p>

<p>Yes. They do. </p>

<p>AFAIK Most US universities require 16 years of education for “graduate” studies.</p>

@antialias: You’re wrong.
I quote from MIT’s website under who is eligible to apply.

Even Stanford has not stated anywhere that 16 years of education are required.</p>

<p>Hi dude! You can go for B.Eng which is of 4 years in the UK</p>

<p>Nope! BEng in UK takes 3 years. However, I should consider programs like BEng with Industrial placement or study abroad for an year. What do you suggest @mak1702</p>

<p>@Halamadrid9 Yes BEng with industrial placement would be good as you would be having work experience at the time you will apply to US graduate schools. It will be a plus point.</p>
