Important notice – campus change
This course will move to the Belfast campus. Students will change campus part way through this course.
This MEng Hons course has been designed with the aid of employers to prepare students for a wide range of industrial electronic and mechanical roles. Expanding upon the knowledge gained in the first four years (3 in study, 1 in industry), this course will allow you to choose specialist subjects in the fifth year. This will allow you to extend your knowledge in an area of interest to you, or an area which will provide further career opportunities.
Utilising a connected programme of study, allowing you to build upon your knowledge gained in each semester, this degree will prepare you to become a well-rounded engineer equipped for a wide range of roles within industry.
Course Details - Modules
This course has been designed with the aid of industrialists to address the needs of industry and research. The course provides a broadly based qualification in mechatronics engineering, integrating the principal aspects of electronic, mechanical and computing. Modern technology involves an increasingly complex and challenging range of research, development and design skills applied in a variety of industries as diverse as automotive, aerospace automation, medical instrumentation, domestic and leisure products. Graduates aspiring to a professional career in such industries find it more useful to have a multi-disciplinary knowledge base, rather than the traditional single discipline one. This MEng course is designed for those wanting to become chartered engineers.
