Mechanical Engineering, MEng (Hons)

This degree covers fundamental engineering principles, blending theoretical learning with hands-on experience to solve real-world challenges. It emphasizes engineering design and modeling, with core subjects in the first two years—including mathematics, fluids, dynamics, thermodynamics, and materials behavior—applied through industry-typical projects. Later years allow specialization in areas like mechanical engineering or biomechanics, integrating engineering with biomedical sciences. Year three features a group design project with industrial partners, while the final year involves an individual research project under expert supervision. The course seeks re-accreditation from the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) for 2024-25 entry.Project-based learning integrates science with practical problems, offering personalized optional modules from world-leading research. The Preparation for Practice module builds employability skills, supported by weekly personal tutorials and a vibrant community highly rated in the National Student Survey (NSS).
