From manufacturing and the medical sector, to the automotive, aerospace and construction industry. From day one, we treat you as a trainee engineer.

The modules you’ll study encourage project-based learning. And you’ll get the chance to plan, build and test your own prototypes. You can even spend a whole year on a mechanical engineering industrial placement.

Past students have worked with the likes of Reckitt, Airbus, Virgin Media, Howdens, IBM, BMW Group, Siemens, Microsoft, and Smith & Nephew. As well as our three-year mechanical engineering course, we offer four- and five-year options with the chance to transfer anytime. Choose from a built-in placement year in industry or an integrated Masters (MEng) – or both.

Imagine it. A whole year working for one of the biggest names in the technology, manufacturing or automotive industries. And like all our engineering courses, Mechanical Engineering shares a common first year.

That means you can switch degrees in second year if you want to choose a different pathway.
