BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers design equipment, develop prototypes, evaluate tools and manufacture solutions for real-world applications across a range of challenging and fast-growing sectors, including transport, defence and robotics. Studying this degree will prepare you for a career in the broad areas of contemporary product design, automated manufacture, computer aided engineering, and applied industrial engineering. You will exploit advances in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, computing technologies and mechatronics, and develop the professional responsibilities needed to operate with confidence in the rapidly changing world of mechanical engineering. Gaining fundamental skills in programming, mathematics, control theory, modelling and professional practice, you will graduate as a skilled professional with expertise aligned with the needs of organisations from a range of sectors, able to actively participate in, and manage, the design and development of mechanical engineering systems.
