Course summary

Engineers are the skilled problem solvers who develop the products and systems in response to the evolving needs of future generations. Ongoing advances in computing power and the increasing use of integrated systems that link mechanical, electrical and other engineering systems together is creating new industrial sectors that need a sophisticated skillset. Our BEng Engineering degree is an interdisciplinary General Engineering programme, and you will learn mechatronics, digital design, mechanical design and control systems, equipping you to design and build complex automated systems.You will develop expertise in robotics, smart manufacture and systems engineering, and learn to apply your new skills to contemporary engineering challenges. As more industrial and home devices start using sophisticated intelligent systems, people with a general engineering skillset are in increasing demand due to their ability to integrate these different systems.This is a high-tech, highly practical degree with a strong theme of hands-on lab-based design and development.You might be building your own sun-tracking solar-powered device charger, designing an assistive limb device for rehabilitating patients with weakened muscles, or developing the control system and building and testing a prototype of an autonomous car that can route find and navigate obstacles automatically.There are a range of careers available to graduates with an BEng Engineering degree, including advanced manufacture, robotics, automation engineers, data scientist, software engineering. Demand for this advanced and integrated skillset continues to grow as technology advances.The degree is a fantastic launchpad for creating a start-up business and launching innovative smart products. We’ll develop your entrepreneurial mindset, and if you are interested in commercialising any of your ideas, we’ll give you support to start your own device-led business targeting industrial or home customers.
