What you’ll study

The majority of our students follow five-year MEng courses. All students experience the same learning pace in the first two years and BEng students can, and often do, transfer to the MEng programme.

Aeronautical topics can also be studied in other Mechanical Engineering courses, with the more specialised material being concentrated in Years 4 and 5. This flexible structure allows for transfer between courses, normally until the end of Year 3.

Year 1

Students learn about the fundamental principles and concepts of the following topics:

  • maths
  • mechanics
  • dynamics
  • thermodynamics and fluid mechanics
  • electrical engineering

Engineering science content is integrated through the Design and Application classes. You'll also choose elective classes.

Year 2

You'll focus on the mainstream core of engineering subjects, together with Applied Mathematics and Information Technology. The Engineering Science element includes:

  • thermodynamics and fluid dynamics
  • dynamics and control
  • structural mechanics and materials

You may also choose elective modules, developing areas such as language skills or business management.

Year 3

Design is the central theme of studies in third-year. You'll undertake design exercises and supporting engineering science modules relevant to your degree. There's also the opportunity to spend some or all of Year 3 studying abroad on a compatible course.

Years 4 & 5

In your final years of study, you'll begin operating as a professional engineer, working closely with academic staff as mentors. You'll also complete an individual and group project, which are mandatory for professional accreditation.

MEng study broadens your horizons and deepens your understanding of specialist areas, such as aerodynamics, aero-propulsion systems and finance. Those who haven’t spent a year abroad in Year 3 may do so in Year 5, following a Masters equivalent course.

Other activities

A high proportion of our students participate in activities such as the Outdoor Management Skills course at Outward Bound Scotland, Formula Student, the national competition to build a formula student racing car, (at which Strathclyde is the top-performing Scottish university), the British Model Flying Association’s University Challenge, and ‘Gala,’ the annual employers’ networking dinner.

Course content

  • Year 1

    • Compulsory classes

    Engineering Mechanics 1
    Knowledge of mechanics is a fundamental tool for a mechanical engineer. This introductory class aims to investigate classical mechanics - force, motion, energy, work and momentum – from a conceptual viewpoint to understand how these are connected and how they can be applied, through formal problem solving, to real-world engineering.
    Electrical Circuits
    Mechanical systems rely upon electrical and electronic circuits for many reasons: the delivery of drive power; sensing temperature, pressure etc.; the delivery of sensor data for condition monitoring, control and operation. This course covers how external data is acquired, conditioned and used and will equip students with an understanding of the basic theories underlying electronics.
    Heat & Flow 1
    Knowledge of thermodynamics, heat and fluid flow are important for the understanding and design of thermal and hydraulic systems involving energy conversion and transmission, such as engines and turbines, pumps and compressors, and associated pipework. This class introduces the basic concepts and applications of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, as a foundation for further studies.
    Mechanical Engineering Design
    The aim of this class is to place the essential elements of design at the heart of courses for mechanical engineering students. It shows how the disparate elements of engineering science may be brought together and used to create a safe, durable and cost-effective solution to a perceived engineering need. This course continues in later years.
    Experimental & Laboratory Skills
    This class introduces students to a range of experimental and laboratory related skills appropriate to mechanical engineering. This includes elements of laboratory and workshop safety including risk assessment. Students will gain familiarity with a range of hand tools and welding/joining procedures and develop an understanding of how to conduct experiments, record data, evaluate errors and write technical reports.
    Engineering Analysis & Numerical Methods
    This module aims to give a basic introduction to some of the tools of engineering analysis used in the course through relevant application software in an engineering context. This module aims to teach the basic principles of programming and the solution of mathematical problems with numerical techniques in an engineering context. Specifically students will be introduced to the engineering numerical simulation software MATLAB, which is widely used in industry and research. This course continues in later years.
    Mathematics 1M
    This class aims to review and extend the student’s basic understanding of the concepts and applications of mathematical functions, differentiation, complex numbers, vectors, integration and matrices. Specifically: the mathematical foundations of algebra and geometry, vector algebra, further studies in complex numbers and fundamental calculus including differentiation & integration. This topic continues into the second year of the course.

    Elective classes

    During the first year of the course students take at least 20 credits (out of a total of 120 credits) of elective classes from topics in modern languages, engineering, science, business, bioengineering and others (depending on timetable availability).
  • Year 2

    • Compulsory classes

    Electrical Machines & Control
    Engineering students from non-electrical disciplines often require a working knowledge and appreciation of electrical power devices and their use. This class develops the theory underlying simple electrical circuit analysis, transformers and electrical motors, and seeks to develop an understanding of their application through example and laboratory work.
    Aero Design

    This class builds on the initial work carried out in Flight and Space Flight 1. The taught part of the class is reinforced by experimental investigation, flight experience and flight test. The class also introduces the mathematical modelling tools you will require in the third-year aero design class. Topics covered include: aircraft design; airworthiness and the flight envelope; static, longitudinal stability and control of aircraft is considered; and the standard atmosphere – variation of temperature, pressure and density with height is explained.

    The calculation of the performance of aircraft is studied: indicated and true airspeed; steady level flight – minimum drag and minimum power flight speed; steady glide and climb; take-off and landing; steady turning flight; range and endurance; flight and gust envelopes.

    Heat & Flow 2
    This class continues the study of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. The behaviour of fluids is an important aspect in the performance of engineering systems: the underlying physics of fluid flow and its application to simple systems is presented. Thermodynamics is the science that is devoted to understanding energy in all its forms and how energy changes form; the aim of is to supply the necessary analytical tools to study these changes when applied in engineering situations, in particular for transportation and power production.
    Mathematical Modelling & Analysis
    This class develops a general approach to the solution of engineering problems and involves mathematical modelling, numerical methods and the application of computer software. A wide range of engineering topics is presented and includes problems in structures, dynamics, fluids and heat transfer to emphasise the general applicability of the solution processes with practical application using Mathcad.

Firstly, to develop competency in mechanism design using the PTC Creo software suite including part creation, assembly and drawing creation competencies. Secondly, to develop competency in materials selection for engineering design, using the CES Selector software.
  • Year 3

    • Compulsory classes

    Aero-Design 2
    The class consists of a semester-long design/build/test group exercise. The projects available each year will depend upon the staff involved in this class. A typical project, which might be available, is the BMFA “University Challenge”: Groups of approximately 5 students design, build and test a small-scale remote control aircraft to take part in the BMFA University Challenge. Over the 12 weeks of the semester, the groups will develop their design, build, test and optimise the design. The aircraft are taken by the teams to fly off in the competition held at Elvingon Airfield, York, in June. A small budget is allocated to each group.
    Structural Mechanics
    This class is a continuation of the structures element of class 16232. Topics include: two-dimensional stress and strain; multi-axial elastic constitutive relations and yield criteria; general equations of elasticity leading to classic solutions for thick and thin cylindrical structures; further analysis of beams; energy methods of analysis; instability and buckling.
    Flight & Spaceflight 2
    The second year of this class builds on the initial work carried out in Flight and Spaceflight 1 and Aero Design 1 and is intended to introduce students to the mathematical modelling tools they will require in the third year design class. Experimental Aerodynamics is introduced and the experimental methods used by researchers in this area are explained. It also introduces the mathematics of flight simulation and the technology involved in flight simulator hardware and software including longitudinal stability and control.
    Dynamics & Control
    The first part of this class is a continuation of the dynamics element of class 16232 including principles of the kinematics of rigid bodies; equations of plane motion; angular momentum; vibration of mechanical systems with laboratory practice and demonstrations. The second part aims to introduce control theory and the modelling of linearized physical systems and design of feedback control systems.
    Engineering Analysis III
    This continuing class aims to introduce the theory and application of the two most widely used numerical methods in engineering analysis: Finite Element Analysis (Structural & stress analysis and the commercial FEA program ANSYS) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (Analysis of flow field; recirculation zones/stagnation points; boundary layers and an introduction to the commercial CFD program FLUENT).
    Heat & Flow 3
    This class builds on the students’ previous study of thermodynamics and heat transfer to cover: mixtures, psychrometry, exergy and its applications; conduction, convection and radiation in heat exchanger design. The study of the laws of conservation of mass, energy and momentum moves to a more advanced level and knowledge of fluid flow is extended to provide an appreciation of boundary layers and fluid flow in rotating machinery.
    Strategic Analysis of Engineering Business Case Studies
    An introduction to the concept of the conscious pursuit of competitive advantage by engineering businesses is developed in this class. Following introductory lectures and case studies, students work in groups to analyse and prepare for presentation a selection of engineering business cases from a variety of sources, moderated by industrial mentors.
    Engineering Ethics
    The study of engineering ethics helps students prepare for their professional lives and to develop widely applicable skills in communication, moral reasoning and reflection in order to engage with other aspects of the course such as group work and work placements. This class follows the approach outlined for the teaching of Engineering Ethics recommended by the Royal Academy of Engineering using case studies.
  • Year 4

    • Compulsory classes

    Case Studies in Engineering
    Professional engineers need to have an awareness of the impact of engineering and technology on society. This class provides this awareness through case studies presented by senior representatives from industry, and visiting academics, from a spectrum of engineering industries to cover project management, technical sales, planning and industrial relations and more traditional topics.
    Computer Aided Engineering Design
    This class continues class 16363 and aims to provide an appreciation of computer aided design, analysis and simulation methods over a range of engineering problems and to provide practical experience of the use of industry standard engineering simulation and analysis software to design and investigate the behaviour and performance of specific systems or components.
    Engineering Materials Selection
    Engineers must be aware of the importance of materials selection in the design process. An introduction to the philosophy of materials selection in design is given. Consideration is given to the various classes of available engineering materials, with some background to the underlying factors that determine their general properties, providing an overview of their general or specific properties and an insight into their uses and selection criteria for design.
    Individual Project - Mechanical
    Students pursue an intensive research, development or design project under the supervision of a member of academic staff to produce a major dissertation and technical paper. The project maybe on an aerospace related topic but students can study a mainstream mechanical engineering topic. At the end of both semesters, panels of academic staff conduct oral examinations to assess student performance and the technical paper. The supervisor assesses the work separately.
    Advanced Mechanics & Dynamics
    The aims of this class are two-fold: to develop the students' ability to apply analytical techniques to the solution of engineering problems where dynamic behaviour is important and to provide practical experience in designing lightweight structures to ensure that they have sufficient strength and stiffness to prevent failure, particularly by buckling, when in service.
    Heat & Flow 4
    An understanding of heat, mass and momentum transfer processes is a basic requirement for practising engineers. This class aims to build upon the students' previous three year’s exposure to the basic energy transfer mechanisms of conduction, convection and radiation so that multi-dimensional, steady state and transient problems can be recognised and analysed.
    Aerospace Propulsion
    This class provides an understanding of the principles of propulsion systems for aircraft. The procedure and methodology for designing a propulsion device, starting from the aircraft concept and the associated engine requirements, through to the aero-thermal design of engine components is presented and discussed. Using a combination of lectures and project-based activities, you'll develop an understanding of the design process and the performance of aerospace propulsion systems.
  • Year 5

    • Compulsory classes

    MEng Group Project - Mechanical
    The class aims to give students an authentic experience of managing and contributing to a complex group project and is a requirement of professional accreditation for a Master’s degree. It includes an opportunity to demonstrate mastery of the technical aspects of the project, in addition to demonstrating competence in project management, technical risk management and safety risk assessment.

    Optional classes

    Engineering Composites
    The promise claimed for new materials in engineering is most likely to be realised through the use of composites and ceramics. This class aims to give a basic understanding of modern composite materials and an appreciation of predictive modelling and design implications when composites are applied to engineering structures. The main composite manufacturing processes will be outlined.
    Pressurised Systems
    This class aims to introduce the subject of industrial Pressurised Systems and ensure competency in the use of Standards and Design Codes. Pressurised Systems are inherently dangerous since they contain stored energy which must be carefully controlled. A methodology is set down whereby a range of pressurised components can be designed, manufactured, installed and operated to a high degree of safety.
    Machine Dynamics
    This class adopts an analytical approach to dynamic problems which occur in conventional and modern machines with a view to developing good design and control practice and analytical skills. It covers mathematical preliminaries, out of balance and balancing of rotor-dynamic and reciprocating machines, 1&2 degree of freedom machines and high-dimensional machines such as autonomous underwater vehicles and spacecraft.
    Machinery Diagnosis & Condition Monitoring
    Condition monitoring and fault detection in structures and machinery plays an important part in the maintenance and protection of equipment, and has come to the fore since the recent advances in computer-based systems. This class provides an understanding of Condition Monitoring (CM) and its relevance to industry. Particular attention is paid to vibration-based health monitoring and signal (time series) analysis.
    Mathematical Modelling in Engineering Science
    Mathematical modelling remains an important tool for engineers to understand complex phenomena and to predict the behaviour of complex systems. This class is designed to provide insights into generic problems in engineering science through ordinary differential equations. Examples include the use of bifurcation methods to understand buckling and the use of (singular) perturbation methods to understand boundary layers in fluid flow.
    Spaceflight Mechanics
    This class is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of spaceflight mechanics, including both orbit and attitude dynamics. The classic two-body problem is solved then used to investigate various modes of orbit transfer and attitude stabilisation for both spin- and 3-axis stabilised spacecraft. The various elements of the class will be brought together to illustrate the mission analysis and design process.
    Aerodynamic Propulsion Systems
    The principles of propulsion systems for aircraft and rockets are covered. Throughout the class, the overall procedure and methodology for designing a propulsion device, starting from the aircraft concept and the associated engine requirements, through to the aero-thermal design of engine components is presented and discussed. Students will develop an understanding of the overall design process and the performance of aerospace propulsion systems.
    Control Systems Design
    This advanced module covers techniques for the design of control laws for engineering systems. The material builds on the fundamentals learned previously on the systems modelling and analysis of open and closed loop control for engineering systems. This module emphases developing computer models for the simulation and analysis of linear control systems and the design of associated control laws. Advanced concepts such as non-linear systems and optimal control theory are introduced.
    Advanced Topics in Fluid Systems Engineering
    Complex fluid flow and heat transfer problems are central to many advanced fluid engineering systems often at the cutting-edge of modern engineering. These include human biological flows, multiphase flows, micro- and nano- scale flows. In all of these our physical understanding is limited, which limits our engineering design ability. This class gives students the opportunity to identify and explore a number of advanced topics in heat transfer and fluid flow.
    Spaceflight Systems
    This class is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of spaceflight systems. An overview of the complete spacecraft lifecycle from proposal, through delivery and operations is covered, along with the function and purpose of the spacecraft sub-system level components. The various elements of the class are brought together through the production of competitive proposals for a typical spaceflight system development program.
    Advanced Research Project A
    The object of the project is to expand and enlarge on work completed in the 4th year Individual Project, ME409, in order to carry out a feasibility study for the preparation of a full paper for submission to a refereed engineering journal.
    Advanced Research Project B
    The object of the project is to expand and enlarge on work completed in class ME409 to prepare a full paper for submission to a refereed engineering journal. This may involve further research and background study, further experimental and/or simulation work, more detailed analysis and discussion of results, or other activities, to be agreed by the individual supervisor.
    Polymer & Polymer Composites
    Polymer and polymer composite materials have been increasingly used in modern engineering applications such as aerospace, automotive, construction, marine, oil and gas. This class aims to provide background knowledge of polymers and a basic understanding of modern polymer composites. The class is balanced between the study of science and engineering in order to prepare students for further advances in the field of polymer and polymer composites.
    Engineering Plasticity
    This module aims to introduce concepts in Engineering Plasticity in metals and their application to problems in Engineering Design and Structural Integrity Assessment. The course will introduce students to basic concepts in plastic deformation, including local and structural failure mechanisms, through one-dimensional analytical models. These will then be expanded to three dimensions, introducing stress and strain tensors and multi-axial yield criteria.
    Introduction to Engineering Optimisation
    This class aims to provide an introduction to optimization techniques for continuous problems and to the approaches to the formulation and solution of optimization problems in engineering. Using a combination of lectures and project-based activities, students will develop an understanding of the overall design optimisation process and the performance of different optimisation algorithms, when applied to solve real engineering cases.
