<strong>Our extended degree in mechanical engineering starts with a foundation year to prepare you for degree-level study. After your first year, you study the modules from our three-year course.</strong><br/><br/>Our Extended Degree Programme in Mechanical Engineering starts with a foundation year. The extended degree programme prepares students for the first year of the mechanical engineering degree programme. In the foundation year, students will study modules in project design and implementation, professional and personal development along with an introduction to engineering mathematics. These modules aim to provide students with core knowledge relating to engineering and science and are Project-Based Learning (PBL) in nature which aim to create realistic engineering work environments which require teamworking, communication, research, design, and practical & experimental skills. After completion, students will then join the three-year honours degree programme in mechanical engineering which will cover mechanical dynamics, materials and mechanics, electrical, electronic and control systems, fluids, thermodynamics, process improvement, quality engineering and materials handling.<br/><br/>At the end of the programme, you will be equipped for a career as a professional engineer in industries such as power generation, HVAC, pharmaceuticals, food manufacturing, automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, supply chain and logistics as well as high-value manufacturing industries to name but a few.<br/><br/>The Extended BEng Honours Mechanical Engineering degree programme is also accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) meaning that it provides ideal preparation for aspiring professional engineers.<br/><br/><strong>What you should know about this course</strong><br/>• Ranked Top UK Uni by StudentCrowd 2023.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• We are a diverse and inclusive community of students, researchers and academics and we welcome a wide range of students from many different backgrounds.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• You’ll gain the skills you need in a supportive, employment-focused environment and will be among research-active academics whose work is making a difference to people’s lives.<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Youll study in Medway in Kent, a great location with fantastic transport links.
