Here’s your chance to join the next generation of innovators who will design and build the products, machines and systems of the future. It could lead to careers in industries as diverse as robotics, aerospace and renewable energy.
On our BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering course, we’ll take you through exciting developments in automation, advanced manufacturing and other new technologies fuelling Industry 4.0. You will also develop a strong underpinning in engineering principles, including thermodynamics and mechanics of fluids or structures.
As well as building your technical knowledge, you will learn modern business philosophies and leadership skills. This will give you lots of transferrable skills for the business world and the confidence to manage projects and teams.
We will get you to solve real problems too, such as how to manage an inventory by monitoring the flow of goods, stock levels and cost efficiencies.
The course also covers control systems and quality management, including the importance of meeting ISO standards. To help understand the role of automation, you could be constructing an automated inspection system to monitor the quality of products. We will be delving into robotics and other electronic solutions as well.
Students get plenty of opportunities to use the latest CAD, CFD and FEA professional software to create innovative designs and simulate how products work.
Our facilities also include an industry-standard CNC machine for advanced manufacturing and labs for material testing and exploring friction and vibration.
In our £1.3 million Smart Zone, we have fabrication and collaboration spaces featuring augmented and blended reality. It’s where you’ll get to grips with laser cutters, 3D scanners and printers, and other rapid prototyping techniques.
For work on developing advanced materials, we have a manufacturing and digital hub at the £20 million Innovation Enterprise Zone. Through the IEZ, we also offer unique connections into industry and some students get to work on innovation projects with real companies.
You can also opt for a 12-month placement to gain invaluable practical experience for your future career.
Students will be able to explore other key developments in engineering as part of our research-informed teaching. Our staff bring a wealth of real-world expertise and are involved in internationally important research. Their specialist areas of interest include renewable energy systems, CFD simulations, statistical modelling, product design, using analytical tools in health and environmental sciences, and advanced manufacturing techniques.
You will round off the course by completing your own in-depth research project. Your work will then be exhibited at our GradEX show, providing the ideal opportunity to get noticed by industry experts and employers.
On successful completion of study, we will issue the following award: BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering
