Overview
On this BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering degree you will study mechanical engineering theory, practically apply your knowledge and skills in workshops and practical classes, and complete multiple design-build-test challenges with your fellow students. You will be issued a design brief in these challenges and use the Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate (CDIO) engineering cycle to complete the project.
In your first year you will take part in a team CDIO challenge with other Mechanical Engineering students. The second year CDIO challenge is an interdisciplinary team challenge where you will work with students from other engineering subjects. In the final year you will work on an individual project and present your work technically to other engineers as well as to a non-technical audience.
This course contains many specialist modules to provide you with the breadth knowledge and skills you need need to prepare for a successful career in engineering and science.
On this course you will:
- Complete yearly two-semester design-build challenges.
- Gain and apply knowledge and skills in workshops, seminars and practical and lab based modules.
- Study topics specific to Mechanical Engineering.
- Be assessed through roughly 75% coursework, practical work, project work and presentations.
- Have the opportunity to develop practical expertise alongside local businesses.
Optional Foundation Year
We offer an integrated foundation year with BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering. This means you have the option to complete an extra year of study before starting the BEng. This course is for you if you have not met the course entry requirements yet, or if you feel like you need more time to prepare for higher education and make the most of your university studies.
This varied foundation course is designed to make our STEM degrees more accessible and is delivered through small, interactive seminars and tutorials as well as practical lab. You will develop your research, communication, team work and problem-solving skills and cover a range topics including physics, mathematics, electronics and computing, and the practical application of these to engineering disciplines through design-build-test challenges.
This Foundation Year prepares you to transition to our other Engineering degrees and is not a standalone programme.
Teaching and Assessment
This course is taught in small, interactive seminar groups at our Tech Park. This is different to traditional engineering courses which often involve large, impersonal lectures. Using seminars and small teaching groups means you get more demonstrations and opportunities to work as a team with others in the department and students from related courses such as Business, Product Design or Digital Media.
The course is delivered through seminars, workshops, tutorials, computer labs, physical labs and project practical time. You will reinforce your theoretical learning with practical engineering tasks and have the opportunity to debate and discuss your experiences with peers in interactive seminars and tutorials.
Assessments
You will be assessed through a variety of assignments including coursework, written exams, lab and practical work, project work, presentations and online tests.
About 25% of your assessments are exams, with coursework, practical and project work and presentations making up the remaining 75%.
The Course
You will study a selection of core and optional modules in each year. Each module is worth a number of credits and you will study 360 credits throughout your degree. Each module is delivered differently, depending on its content and focus of study.
This list is indicative and subject to change.
Select a year
Mathematical Principles I
This introductory module provides a mathematical foundation for Engineering students. This module assumes some experience in applied mathematics at level 3 (A level, BTEC) and is essential for studying other modules in electrical and mechanical engineering. You will be assessed through an assignment using the METLAB software and an analysis assignment.
Work Placements
Prepare for your career with practical placements
You can apply for a year long industrial placement during your degree.
Gaining industry experience is invaluable. As well as giving you the opportunity to put your studies into practice and use the skills you develop on your course, completing a placement helps to improve your CV and show employers that you’ve already completed work in industry when you graduate.
Placements years usually take place between your second and third years of study. You will spend 1 year working with a company in industry before returning to the University to complete your final year. This effectively extends your studies by one year.
The placement will be a paid position, with pay at or above the National Minimum Wage.
Placement years are competitive. We will support you in finding and applying for a suitable placement, but we are unable to guarantee placements.
Careers
Discover what you can do after you graduate
The demand for engineers is growing, and will continue to grow. An engineering degree will give you a huge choice of routes for employment, whether or not you choose to following a career in engineering after you graduate.
You will graduate with more than your engineering knowledge. You will graduate as a numerate and scientifically trained thinker with skills that are immediately transferable to a diverse range of sectors. Your independent project work, team projects, presentations, skills and lab experiences will help you develop skills that are useful in a range of job roles. You will have the opportunity to study business and enterprise modules that will prepare you for industry or to set up your own business.
Our engineering degrees offer a practical approach to learning based and follow a syllabus designed in partnership with local businesses to ensure that you are highly employable and ready to make an impact when you graduate.
You could work in:
- Electronics
- ICT
- Automotive industry
- Manufacturing
- Electrical power
- Finance
- Transportation
- Construction
