Mechanical Engineering MEng (Hons)

University of Surrey

**Why choose this course**Surrey’s mechanical engineering courses are designed to meet the rapidly evolving needs of modern society and are professionally accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.Our courses provides a broad engineering knowledge leading to a wide range of possible careers. Mechanical engineers work in areas such as robotics, automation, sustainable materials, stress analysis, fluid mechanics and mechanical design.In addition to learning from internationally recognised academics at the forefront of their fields, you’ll have access to industry-standard facilities, including our state-of-the-art Design Centre, materials testing laboratory and the UK’s only environmental wind tunnel.You’ll also have the opportunity to take a Professional Training placement. Previous students have secured placements with companies such as Arup, BAE Systems, Rolls-Royce and Jaguar Land Rover.**What you will study**The course encompasses topics such as fluid-dynamics, stress analysis and numerical methods. In addition, you’ll receive training on the latest industry-standard design and solid modelling software, automated manufacturing techniques, as well as sensors, actuators and advanced control systems which drive modern mechanical engineering products.For your final year project, you may choose to make the most of Surrey’s partnership with the National Physical Laboratory, or explore the cross-disciplinary aspect of mechanical engineering, applying your skills in areas ranging from prosthetics to satellites.You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng (Master of Engineering), which is a direct route to a masters qualification. Depending on your progress, you may have the option to switch to a BEng or MEng during your studies.
