Manufacturing Engineering Beng (Hon)

We aim to produce graduates with the versatility and depth of understanding to deal with new and unusual challenges in mechanical engineering, alongside the necessary imagination and creativity to innovate. <br/><br/>In 2019, the Manufacturing Engineering degree programme, as part of Coventry University’s Institute for Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering (AME), was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary prize 2019 for developing industry-ready graduates.<br/><br/><br/>* Your learning is designed to be grounded in practical real-world application inspired by Unipart’s experience. We also currently have strong employer links with a range of companies, such as Aston Martin, JLR, Prodrive, MIRA, Triumph Motorcycles, BAE Systems and Rolls Royce. <br/><br/><br/>* This degree course also aims to provide you with the opportunity to directly access Uniparts operations, working on some of their live issues in a real-world manufacturing production environment, as well as being able to access the University’s modern High Performance Engineering Centre*.<br/><br/><br/>* You will have the opportunity to gain industrial experience, apply your knowledge and learning to real ‘live’ industrial problems in each year of the degree programme*. <br/><br/><br/>**Key Course Benefits**<br/><br/>Opportunity to participate in field trips abroad, which have previously included trips to Poland, Bulgaria, China, Belgium and USA*.<br/><br/>Access to industry-standard software, such as Computer Aided Design (CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FAE) and Computer fluid dynamics (CFD) mathematic modelling software. <br/><br/>A dedicated industrial placement tutor will aim to help you with your applications for placements and support you if you choose to spend a year in industry*. Past placements have included roles in Aston Martin Lagonda, Unipart, Babcock International Group, Cummins, GE-Aviation and GKN <br/><br/>Access to extensive modern facilities in our High-Performance Engineering Centre, which houses a 20% scale model wind tunnel, composites lab, metrology lab, four-pot shaker rig, flow lab, AVL engine test cell, automotive workshop, fatigue and tensile testing (Instron), a full-size Harrier Jet, three further simulators, civil engineering specialist testing equipment, a range of Computerised Numeric Control (CNC) machinery and a laser workshop**.<br/><br/>The Faculty on the Factory Floor initiative should enable you to learn about and experience the latest technology on the manufacturing front line, which includes of state-of-the-art robotic automation, forming, joining, analysis and simulation, metrology and product verification technology**.<br/><br/>*UK and international opportunities <br/>Please note that we are unable to guarantee any UK or International opportunities (whether required or optional) such as internships, work experience, field trips, conferences, placements or study abroad opportunities and that all such opportunities may be subject to additional costs (which could include, but is not limited to, equipment, materials, bench fees, studio or facilities hire, travel, accommodation and visas), competitive application, availability and/or meeting any applicable travel COVID and visa requirements. To ensure that you fully understand the visa requirements, please contact the International Office. <br/><br/>** Facilities are subject to availability. Due to the ongoing restrictions relating to COVID-19, some facilities (including some teaching and learning spaces) may vary from those advertised and may have reduced availability or restrictions on their use.
