Mechanical Engineering BEng (Hons)

Mechanical Engineering applies the principles of physics to the analysis, design and maintenance of mechanical systems. It defines how and why mechanical systems work, how long a mechanical system will work and predict when they will fail.Mechanical Engineers are at the heart of a broad spectrum of UK and international industrial sectors. They design and specify products ranging from mobile phones to bullet trains, and work extensively in the nineteen IMechE defined mechanical engineering industrial sectors.Covering an extensive range of disciplines from Dynamics and Control, to Stress Analysis Heat Transfer and Thermodynamics, a diverse array of engineering science based subjects are experienced, providing technical expertise and integration of skill sets. Mechanical Engineering takes advantage of other engineering disciplines, blending Materials Science, Electronics and Software Engineering with the core subjects.For further insight into what you can expect to study on our Mechanical Engineering degree please take a look at the modules listed below.
