About this course

MEng in Materials Science and Engineering with a Foundation Year, a materials science and engineering degree centred on the principles of materials and their engineering applications. Core topics include Programming, Statistics, and Mathematical Modelling. This five-year programme includes an initial foundation year designed to strengthen science skills before progressing to the main MEng degree. The foundation year establishes core knowledge through modules such as Advanced Level Chemistry and Introduction to Engineering. Students select supplementary study options from Elements of Physics with Computing, Elements of Physics, Core Foundation Mathematics, and Foundation Core and Enhanced Mathematics. These options allow learners to build competence in mechanics, software development, and quantitative analysis.
