Subject

Mechanical engineering

Solution seeker? Challenge chaser? Our integrated Masters degree will kickstart – and accelerate – your career in mechanical engineering. Get ready to design and develop equipment, evaluate tools and solve society’s problems.

Mechanical engineers are in demand. Employers across expanding sectors like defence, transport and robotics are looking for professionals with the right skill and mindset.

On completion of this integrated Masters’s degree, you’ll be the perfect fit for roles in product design, automated manufacture, computer-aided engineering, and applied industrial engineering.

Thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, computing technologies and mechatronics are just a few of the areas you’ll explore. We’ll help you become confident with the rapidly changing world of mechanical engineering.

Learn what it means to work effectively as a team and see first-hand how different disciplines join forces to create solutions. Put your skills to the test in an exciting engineering project that you’ll work on as part of a team.

You’ll be able to manage the design and development of mechanical engineering systems. Your knowledge in everything from programming to control theory, modelling to professional practice will be sought after by employers across sectors.

Modules

Please visit our website for information on available modules.

Assessment methods

You will be assessed through a combination of practical exercises, reports, essays, presentations and examinations. We want you to develop the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team, therefore assessment includes both of these forms, though the emphasis is strongly on individual work.

Post-six month graduation stats:

This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.

It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.

While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
