Course summary
Our BEng Mechanical Engineering course is designed to educate the next generation of mechanical engineers to have a positive impact on our society across the 21st century. We offer a wide ranging and well-balanced selection of topics in engineering science and engineering practice.
Our curriculum embeds a diverse set of professional engineering and management skills, spanning four core areas:
- design and manufacture
- dynamics and control
- materials
- energy and fluid flow.
All mechanical engineering students share a common curriculum in the first two years, covering the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering. Teaching is delivered via lectures, seminars, laboratories, design classes, and short projects in modelling and manufacturing.
In your third year, you'll apply the principles you've learnt to real, complex engineering applications. A major element of this is the open-ended group project, requiring collaboration, creative thinking and a significant individual contribution.
