Mechanical Engineering (Extended)

About this programme

Our degree in mechanical engineering starts with a foundation year to prepare you for degree-level study. After your first year, you study the modules from our three-year course. This degree in Mechanical Engineering starts with a foundation year that will prepare you for the first year of the mechanical engineering degree programme. In the foundation year, you will study modules in project design and implementation, professional and personal development along with an introduction to engineering mathematics. These modules aim to provide you with core knowledge relating to engineering and science and are Project-Based Learning (PBL) in nature which aim to create realistic engineering work environments which require teamworking, communication, research, design, and practical & experimental skills. After completion, you will then join the three-year honours degree programme in mechanical engineering which will cover mechanical dynamics, materials and mechanics, electrical, electronic and control systems, fluids, thermodynamics, process improvement, quality engineering and materials handling. At the end of the course, you will be equipped for a career as a professional engineer in industries such as power generation, HVAC, pharmaceuticals, food manufacturing, automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, supply chain and logistics as well as high-value manufacturing industries to name but a few. Thrive under our expert academics and as part of our diverse community, make use of excellent facilities and support services, and channel your main character energy.
