Manufacturing Engineering (with foundation year) Beng (Hon)

The foundation year of this Coventry University degree will be delivered from our CU Coventry campus. Course delivery from year 1 of the degree course onwards will be from Coventry University campus.<br/><br/>This course aims to provide you with a solid grounding for a career across a range of engineering disciplines, including the automotive, aerospace, marine and medical sectors. <br/><br/>The foundation year seeks to provide opportunities to develop fundamental knowledge and skills in a range of mathematical and business principles, as well as the theories and concepts of electrical and mechanical engineering. Students who successfully complete their foundation year will then progress onto the Manufacturing Engineering BEng (Hons) degree within Coventry University’s School of Mechanical Engineering.<br/><br/>This degree course 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/>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/>**Key benefits of the degree**<br/>* Strong current employer links with a range of companies, such as Unipart, Aston Martin, JLR, Prodrive, MIRA, Triumph Motorcycles, BAE Systems and Rolls Royce<br/><br/><br/>* Opportunities to participate in field trips abroad, which have previously included trips to Poland, Bulgaria, China, Belgium and USA<br/><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/><br/>* Opportunities to apply your knowledge and learning to real ‘live’ industrial problems in each year of the degree programme<br/><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/><br/>* Faculty on the Factory Floor initiative aimed at enabling 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/><br/>See our website for further details.<br/>
