Course Overview

The Brunel Mechanical Engineering MEng gives students interested in pursuing careers in mechanical engineering an extra year of advanced study and training that will deepen their knowledge of the subject, expand their skill sets, and put them on a fast-track to becoming a chartered engineer. Youll also get training in related disciplines integral to the profession such as computing, electrical engineering, and electronics. Our mechanical engineering MEng course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). We offer two study options. You can choose four years full-time or five years full-time with a one-year professional placement that will give you the chance to apply what youve learned to a real-life working environment.
