BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering

Engineering is all about the pursuit of solutions. Mechanical engineers play a vital role in the design and manufacture of almost anything with moving parts, from household appliances to renewable energy systems. This three-year course will foster your curiosity about how things work, refine your problem-solving skills and equip you for a rewarding career in a range of engineering sectors.

You’ll follow an integrated programme in your first year, building the knowledge, skills, and industrial connections you need to excel as an engineer. From year two, you’ll specialise in mechanical engineering, studying solid and fluid mechanics, control systems, and thermodynamics alongside design and manufacturing. Your BEng Mechanical Engineering course culminates in a major individual project on a topic of your choice.

This could be in collaboration with an industrial partner or related to the research of your supervisor. Building on your technical learning from previous years, you’ll develop essential skills like project management, risk assessment, and communication.
