Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines. They deal with anything that moves, from components to machines to the human body – designing, developing, building and testing. This ensures that prototypes function safely, efficiently and reliably, all at a competitive cost.

Our BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering programme has been devised to allow students to explore underlying scientific principles, advanced design technology, problem-solving and management areas, that are essential for being a successful engineer against a modern interdisciplinary engineering landscape. Addressing the field of study holistically, the design-led curriculum ensures understanding through application by providing students an opportunity to engage in engineering design and analysis projects.
