Applied Mechanical Engineering (Top-Up), BSc (Hons)

The Applied Mechanical Engineering top-up degree is designed to build on your existing engineering qualifications, such as a Foundation Degree, DipHE, or HND, enhancing your skills for advanced career opportunities in engineering disciplines and postgraduate studies. Through hands-on, activity-led learning, the program develops your knowledge in mechanical and mathematical sciences, problem-solving, and professional management techniques. You will engage in practical activities, including case studies and a research-inspired individual project, to apply and refine these skills.Key benefits include gaining practical, industry-relevant experience and a balanced mix of academic and analytical abilities, preparing you for roles in engineering, management, and beyond. The course features modules like Manufacturing Process Improvement, Applied Mechanical Science, and an individual project, delivered over the academic year. Note that this program does not award Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Modules are subject to updates; refer to the Coventry University website for the latest details.

The course is designed for you to learn and develop a comprehensive understanding of the mechanical, materials and mathematical (analytical) sciences; approaches to design and product lifecycle; and managerial procedures that provide a basis for working professionally and effectively. The top-up degree is composed of several linked modules that are delivered over the academic year. A major component of the degree is the individual project, which is bespoke in design and allows you to put into practice and further develop the skills that they have learnt in the modules. The individual project is practical in nature and based on a research inspired engineering problem with a professional approach.
