Course Overview

The first year of the course provides a foundational grounding in engineering. Youll then study more advanced principles of mechanics, manufacturing technology, energy systems, and engineering design, potentially working on projects with companies such as Nissan, BAE Systems, and Airbus. We encourage you to spend a full year in the industry between your second and fourth years. Your final year is your integrated master's year that provides you with the in-depth knowledge you need to fulfill the academic requirement to be a Chartered Engineer, which is associated with higher salaries.
