This course provides the opportunity to spend your third year applying the knowledge gained in your first two years of study in an industrial environment. There is no direct entry onto this course but you can transfer from BEng Mechanical and Electrical Engineering after year two if you reach a high academic standard and are successful at an interview with industry.
During this course, you will study units from the mechanical and electrical disciplines along the following themes:
- design and integration of electro-mechanical systems;
- energy conversion and actuation systems;
- embedded systems and control;
- power electronics and electric drives; and
- energy management.
Years one and two offer a grounding in mathematics, thermal management, dynamics and control, computing, electrical energy technologies, and analogue and digital electronics. Laboratory work and case studies will draw together these interdisciplinary foundations.
Your third year will be spent in industry and you will return in your final year into year three of the BEng in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering programme.
In this final year, as well as classroom-based subjects, you will engage in an individual research project. Here you will apply the knowledge and skills that you have developed focussing on a specific topic area from actuation and sensor systems and intelligent adaptable power systems to efficient, clean propulsion technologies.
Mechanical and electrical engineering graduates will be able to innovate technologies in a range of areas. These might include:
- the power flow of renewable energy microgrids, from the wind to the electric generator and the power network to the user in the home;
- actuation systems for motion control or robotics used in healthcare and manufacturing;
- the complete power train of future electric vehicles, from the energy storage system, through to the electric motors, to the mechanical drivetrain and traction system;
- efficient energy storage, allowing sensors to operate in previously inaccessible and far-reaching locations.
This programme is currently under review for accreditation by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council. The outcome is pending.
