About this course
BEng/MEng in Product Design Engineering, a mechanical engineering and fashion design degree centred on the integration of engineering with design. Core topics include Programming, Entrepreneurship. The course is jointly delivered by the University and The Glasgow School of Art. The first year covers the foundations through Analogue Electronics 1, Engineering Skills 1, Materials 1 and Dynamics 1. The second year focuses on Design and Manufacture 2, Power Electronics 2, Thermodynamics 2 and Engineering Skills 2. The third year continues with Control 3, Heat Transfer 3, Design and Manufacture 3 and Simulation of Engineering Systems 3, alongside optional choices such as Advanced Programming and Software Engineering 3 and Fluid Mechanics 3. The fourth year includes Mechanics of Solids 4, PRODUCT DESIGN ENGINEERING 4B*, DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURE 4B* and Business Planning and Management for Engineers. The final year involves Robotics 4, Advanced Manufacture 5, HUMAN FACTORS* and PrODUCT DESIGN ENGINEERING 5*.
