Course Overview

As a BEng degree programme, this course develops a deep understanding of the essential facts, concepts, theories and principles of mechanical engineering and its underpinning science and mathematics.

We’re hands on, practical and applied. That’s why you can expect ‘design-make-test’ projects to feature throughout your degree, not just at the end!

In reality most engineers will find themselves working side-by-side in multi-disciplinary project teams. One of the greatest professional assets that you can have is the ability to function well in this team set-up. That's why some of our modules are shared across all our engineering courses. These modules help you understand the commercial priorities that shape engineering practice – and guest lecturers from world-renowned companies, such as Rolls-Royce, have lectured on them.

As an engineer, you can be a problem-solver, a technical specialist, a manager... the types of projects you’ll work on are interesting and varied and there’ll always be something new to motivate and inspire you.

With such a varied list of career prospects, you can be sure that life as a mechanical engineer will never be dull. The kinds of projects involved will depend on the sector you choose to work in. You could find yourself designing a mechanical heart to prolong human life or be asked to improve the production process on an oil refinery. It really is that diverse.

This course is the first step to becoming a Chartered Engineer.

Take a look at some potential careers, including mechanical engineer, on Prospects.

Our graduates work with world-class companies including Rolls-Royce, KBR and EDF, in roles within research and development, design, manufacture, testing and installation.
