Industrial Experience / Year Abroad at Uni Engineering

Hi I want to apply for:Meng

- Engineering - Cambridge
- Civil engineering - Edinburgh
- Civil engineering- UCL
- ‘Civil Engineering with Industrial Experience’- Manchester
- Civil Engineering with a Year Abroad’ - Imperial

What are the benefits and disadvantages of studying With a year abroad/ in experience in comparison to the normal degree without? Would it still be 4 years or 5? How common is it for engineering students to do these as I’ve never heard of them until fairly recently and don’t know whether to apply for these or without?
