Mechanical Engineering, MEng (Hons), with industry placement

This course empowers aspiring engineers to advance sustainability and efficiency through innovative problem-solving, leveraging initiative, numeracy, and in-depth knowledge to enhance modern industries. Mechanical engineering influences diverse sectors like aerospace, manufacturing, medicine, renewable energy, and motorsports, impacting everyday life from transportation to food processing. Students benefit from taught sessions, state-of-the-art facilities in robotics and 3D printing, and hands-on projects in individual and group settings.The programme shares a common foundation in mechanical and manufacturing engineering for the first two years, covering fundamentals such as thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, dynamics, and electro-mechanical systems. The third year focuses on a group design-and-make project with core and optional modules, followed by an industry placement in the fourth year. The final year includes a major individual project, advanced engineering topics, and customizable optional modules, all within a five-year structure.
