**Overview** Recent years have seen huge advances in technology for transport, healthcare and robotics. If you enjoy getting stuck into technology projects and love finding practical solutions to problems, this BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering degree course is the perfect choice for you. To meet the challenges of the engineering world, you'll study the design, development, manufacture, installation, operation and maintenance of engineered products. You'll get to specialise in advanced subjects such as sustainable development and computer-aided engineering and have the option to get involved in the University's Formula Student racing team. **Accredited by:** This course is accredited by European Engineering Programmes (EUR-ACE), the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers for meeting in full the academic requirement for registration as CEng. 95% Graduates in work or further study (DLHE, 2017) **What you'll experience** On this course you'll: - Learn about the underlying elements of successful engineering and manufacturing projects, including solid mechanics and dynamics, and engineering design - Use our CAD and rapid prototyping suites, energy systems lab, stress analysis lab, and metrology and 3D scanning microscopy facilities - Get the chance to be involved in Formula Student, where you'll design, construct and test a competitive race car with fellow students - Put your skills to the test by building your own products in our manufacturing workshops - Have to option to expand your learning and meet potential employers by working on an industrial project **Careers and opportunities** There's currently a shortage of talented engineers in the UK and abroad, so there will be many opportunities open to you when you graduate. What can you do with a Mechanical Engineering degree? Previous graduates have gone on to work in areas including: - design - research and development - product manufacture - project management What jobs can you do with a Mechanical Engineering degree? Graduates from this course have gone on to work as: - mechanical engineer - product design engineer - aerospace engineer - application engineer Other graduates have continued their studies at postgraduate level or set up successful businesses with help and support from the University. After you leave the University, you can get help, advice and support for up to 5 years from our Careers and Employability service as you advance in your career. "Formula Student has given me the confidence in my ability as an engineer, as components that I have designed were built and proven to withstand their environment." Simon Hotchkiss, Mechanical Engineering Student

Year 1 Core modules in this year include: - Electrical and Electronic Principles - Introduction to Design - Introduction to Materials and Manufacture - Introduction to Solid Mechanics and Dynamics - Introduction to Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics - Mathematical Principles There are no optional modules in this year. Year 2 Core modules in this year include: - Computer Aided Engineering and Product Manufacture - Engineering Design - Engineering Mathematics and Numerical Analysis - Solid Mechanics and Dynamics - Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics Optional modules in this year currently include: - Control Engineering - Engineering Programming - Materials and Manufacture - Modern Foreign Language Placement year (optional) On this course, you can do an optional work placement year between your 2nd and 3rd years to get valuable experience working in industry. We’ll help you secure a work placement that fits your situation and ambitions. You’ll get mentoring and support throughout the year. Year 3 Core modules in this year include: - Advanced Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics - Design for Quality - Finite Elemnet Analysis in Fluid Mechanics - Individual Project - Sustainable Development and Environmental Management There are no optional modules in this year. We use the best and most current research and professional practice alongside feedback from our students to make sure course content is relevant to your future career or further studies. Therefore, some course content may change over time to reflect changes in the discipline or industry and some optional modules may not run every year. If a module doesn’t run, we’ll let you know as soon as possible and help you choose an alternative module.

You’ll be assessed through: - written examinations - coursework - practical tests - project work - presentations You’ll be able to test your skills and knowledge informally before you do assessments that count towards your final mark. You can get feedback on all practice and formal assessments so you can improve in the future. The way you’re assessed may depend on the modules you select. As a guide, students on this course last year were typically assessed as follows: - Year one students: 84% by written exams and 16% by coursework - Year two students: 56% by written exams, 13% by practical exams and 31% by coursework - Year three students: 60% by written exams and 40% by coursework
