**Overview**<br/>Mechanical engineers are involved with the design and manufacturing of almost anything with moving parts, from household appliances to renewable energy systems.<br/><br/>This course incorporates a range of engineering disciplines including stress analysis, fluid dynamics, control systems, and thermodynamics. You’ll have access to industry-standard software and facilities, helping you develop a well-rounded skill set and become the digital engineer of the future. Regular practical sessions will reinforce this knowledge while group activities will equip you with transferable soft skills like communication and leadership.<br/><br/>Our state-of-the-art facilities in Productivity East act as a link between our students and our industrial partners, helping you secure placements and graduate employment.<br/><br/>The course includes a Year Abroad which will give you an opportunity to capitalise on experiences related to engineering while enhancing your world view and promoting your personal development. <br/><br/>**About This Course**<br/>Mechanical engineering is a great fit for people who are curious about how things work, have a knack for problem solving, or are simply interested in machines and manufacturing. Your curiosity will be encouraged throughout your engineering studies, as you develop the mind-set, tools, experience, and insight you need to pursue a rewarding career in mechanical engineering.<br/><br/>All our engineering courses follow an integrated first year, to build a foundation of engineering knowledge including problem solving, computer aided design (CAD), manufacturing, and engineering, programming, and sketching. At the beginning of the course, you’ll be tasked with an industrially sponsored group project to develop commercial awareness and soft skills like teamworking and communication which will serve you well in your studies and future career. You’ll then deepen your knowledge of solid and fluid mechanics, control systems, thermodynamics, design, and manufacturing. You can tailor the course to your interests with optional modules in electrical engineering, energy storage, solar energy engineering, and nuclear energy engineering.<br/><br/>The pinnacle of the course is a major individual project on a topic of your choice. This could be based on a real-world challenge related to an industrial partner or to the research of your supervisor. This is a unique opportunity to work on something close to your heart and use it as a passionate talking point in job interviews.<br/><br/>Employability is built into your course from day one. Our annual Select scheme is an exclusive opportunity for you to refine your interview skills, build your own professional network, and potentially gain a placement or a permanent position with one of our industrial partners.<br/><br/>Thanks to the Year Abroad, youll develop further your engineering skills within an international environment by being exposed to a different higher educational culture and acting as an ambassador for UEA. This will help you enhance your intellectual flexibility, self-management and life-long learning skills including time management, adaptability, confidence, independence, and enterprise. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
