About this course
MEng in Mechanical Engineering MEng, a mechanical engineering degree exploring core technical principles and professional applications. Core topics include Laboratory Techniques, Research Methods, Fieldwork, Project Management, Engineering Design, Clinical Skills, and Critical & Analytical Thinking. Students combine theoretical learning with practical hands-on experience throughout the program. The first year introduces fundamental scientific principles and practical engineering problems through modules such as Autumn Integrative Project, Spring Integrative Project, Fundamental Engineering Science: Part 1, and Fundamental Engineering Science: Part 2. The second year bridges fundamental theory and practice with modules including Mechanics and Dynamics of Solids and Structures, Design Project Part 1, Manufacturing and Materials Processing, and Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer. The third year involves major practical work through Investigative Project, Engineering in Practice, Structural Integrity with Finite Element Analysis, and Dynamics, Vibration and Control. The final year offers advanced technical modules such as Preparation for Practice, Computational Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal System, Industrial Experimental Methods for Engineering Problems, and Industrial Applications of Finite Element Analysis.
