Mechanical Engineering (Study Abroad) : BEng Hons

Course overview

Mechanical engineers use their skills in almost every industry, and you’ll find their expertise in nearly everything you see and use in everyday life. They design and develop products, systems and machinery to tackle all sorts of challenges, from renewable energy to household appliances, from robotics to manufacturing equipment, from aerospace components to healthcare solutions. As a mechanical engineer you get to use your creativity to design and develop products and systems, build prototypes, analyse and test until you find your solution.

Throughout your career you will frequently work across teams of engineers from other branches of the discipline, so it’s crucial to have a broad understanding of general engineering and its applications. At Lancaster, your first year is dedicated to exactly this, and you’ll share this experience with all our School of Engineering students, regardless of their specialisation. We think this makes you a well-rounded graduate, with excellent teamwork and communications skills, prepared for your future career.
