Mechanical & Aerospace EngineeringStudy with us - undergraduate

Mechanical engineering covers the widest range of topics in any engineering degree programme.

Our courses have a basic structure that involve fundamental engineering sciences, mathematics and engineering analysis, design, electrical engineering, materials engineering and professional studies.

We design our courses to help you to understand how the topics apply to real-world problems. We'll prepare you to work in a technical world where knowledge is growing rapidly.

All of our undergraduate courses are accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). Our courses in aero-mechanical engineering are also accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society.

There are two types of undergraduate courses. BEng courses are studied over four years and MEng courses are studied over five years.
