Mechanical Engineering Beng (Hon)

Our BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering degree provides strong theoretical and practical foundation for those looking to open the door to one of the many career opportunities available to mechanical engineers.  <br/><br/>With project-based learning in all years, including live industry-led projects, you will develop the transferable skills and multi-disciplinary awareness so highly prized by industry. <br/><br/>In your first year you will get a grounding in the fundamental theories of engineering science and applied mathematics, as well as learning practical and project skills. Then, through the study of solid mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, you will begin to develop your scientific and analytical skills. What’s more, every year throughout your studies at Manchester Met, you will have the chance to get involved with projects rooted in our research with potential employers and research teams – giving you valuable experience to apply your skills to real- world engineering. <br/><br/>This course is available with a foundation year and as a part-time programme.  <br/><br/><strong>FEATURES AND BENEFITS</strong><br/><br/><br/>• This degree is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and The Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) under license from the UK regulator, The Engineering Council.  <br/><br/><br/><br/>- 100% of our research impact in Engineering is world-leading or internationally excellent — and 75% is at the highest 4* level (REF 2021). <br/><br/><br/>• The four-year placement route offers the opportunity to spend your third year working on a placement with a relevant employer – gaining the skills and experience that can boost your career prospects.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• This degree is also available with a foundation year. This means if you have the potential to study at degree level, but you don’t meet the entry requirements, you can choose to study a foundation year which will help you prepare for entry into Year 1.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Every year, we invite businesses and academic colleagues to set live projects that challenge our students to devise innovative solutions to current problems. You’ll get feedback and advice directly from industry insiders – giving you the chance to find out exactly what it takes to impress a potential future employer.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• We’ve invested over £115 million to transform the way we teach and the way our students learn. The new Dalton building is equipped with dynamic learning spaces, world-class teaching and research facilities and collaborative study zones. This means you’ll graduate with the skills and experiences employers look for. <br/><br/><br/><br/>• Showcase your engineering and design skills in extra-curricular group projects like the Formula Student racing car competition. or the Engineering for People Design Challenge.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Get fully trained on how to use our workshops, laboratories and specialist engineering software.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• You will have access to regular online video support, which provides additional explanation and guidance on a range of topics, from coursework and exam paper guidance to software tutorials.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• This degree course shares a common first and second year with our MEng degree in mechanical engineering and a common first year with our MEng and BEng degrees in electrical and electronic engineering and BEng degree in biomedical engineering, so you may be able to transfer between courses.<br/><br/>
