Summary
Why choose this course Designing mechanical engineering systems to meet society’s grand challenges requires technical and creative skills. Applied design skills are at the heart of this course, which is designed to train you to become a professional engineer who can create solutions that are safe, efficient and sustainable.
Engineering is about interpersonal skills as well as technical expertise, and on this course you will learn through doing. You will spend the majority of your time on group and individual projects, developing your communication, collaboration, creative and critical thinking skills – equipping you well for the demands of an applied job in industry.
What you will study This course focuses on real-world challenges and practical project work, which reflects the type of work you’ll progress on to as a professional mechanical engineer. Alongside studying taught modules, you will spend eight months on a group project and three months on an individual project, both of which are aimed at solving industry-relevant problems.
You will get the chance to build your expertise in topics such as advanced stress analysis, advanced manufacturing, fracture mechanics and finite element analysis, sustainable materials, environmental aerodynamics and spacecraft structures. You will also develop your digital skills, learning how to use the latest industry-standard design and solid modelling software, and analysing data and presenting your findings.
