Elsevier Engineering School Edition

Access two leading engineering information sources in one package.

The Elsevier Engineering School Edition is a new offer created to serve the needs of independent engineering schools. It provides you and your students with the opportunity to access the same interlinked specialized knowledge as the larger research institutes. It provides the best of two platforms in one convenient and transparent package.

The Elsevier Engineering School Edition combines access to key engineering journals and reference works on ScienceDirect with the specialized engineering search via Engineering Information’s (Ei) award winning Engineering Village. Users can search for scholarly engineering literature via Engineering Village and access peer reviewed full-text content in the physical sciences and engineering titles on ScienceDirect.

Available to:

Independent engineering schools in Europe and APAC that teach up to a master's level and are not involved with research, have neither research centres nor award at a doctoral level.

Content Collection:

A complete package of engineering information in one offer:

  • the most recent Major Reference Work from 11 engineering disciplines on ScienceDirect provide a broad and comprehensive knowledge base
  • full-text content from more than 600+ leading journals in the Physical Sciences collection on ScienceDirect from 1995 onward
  • access to Compendex on Engineering Village, a leading bibliographic database with 10 million records of engineering literature from 1969 onwards including journals, trade magazines and conference proceedings
  • free abstracts of all Elsevier journal articles for all users, both guests and licensed users (regardless of which journals your institute subscribes to) and preceding 1995.
