MEng Mechanical Engineering

You will be assigned a personal tutor on hand throughout your course to offer advice and support on personal matters, provide guidance on course choices and help you appraise your work.

For the course's practical aspects, you will work with a partner or as part of a small team in our well-equipped engineering labs. On your third-year project, you will work individually with an academic staff member.

Continuous assessment of your experimentation, computing, design, and project work will contribute about 30-50% of your overall mark, with the rest based on your performance in exams for each module. You will also be expected to give presentations about your work.

Most of the teaching in the final year of the MEng will be in small seminar groups, and you will be expected to organize an industrially relevant team-based project
