Why choose this courseThe programme, which is professionally accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), combines a strong base in theoretical background (mechanics, materials, fluid, thermal, systems and control) along with project based laboratory, design, build and simulation experiences, which is undertaken in our state-of-the-art live project space.What happens on the courseFor students joining this course in 2025, the first year of study will take place at Telford Campus. The remaining years of the course will be completed at our City (Springfield) Campus.Your journey begins with a foundation year at our City campus, focusing on essential skills and knowledge in communication, mathematics, computing, and engineering principles. This year sets the stage for your transition to our campus, where you'll embark on the main BEng program.All of our degrees have a common first year, allowing you to experience a range of subjects before deciding on the course you wish to follow. You will study Mathematics, and the underlying concepts of Electrical, Mechanical, Materials, and Production Engineering. You will undertake laboratory work; and utilise your new production knowledge to build and test a design.In the second year, you will extend your knowledge of engineering technologies and management, create design specifications, and become proficient in the use of a 3D CAD package. You will also learn the role and responsibilities of a professional engineer. Following the second academic year, you are encouraged to undertake a placement year in industry, thereby improving your employment prospects and forming part of your record of professional development as an incorporated or chartered engineer.In your final year, you will complete an individual project, further develop your integrative approach to designing electro-mechanical systems, develop global management skills, and learn how to convert an idea into a commercial venture.
