Mechanical engineering sciences
Mechanical engineers figure out how things fly, float, drive, spin, hover, move, and they develop innovative engineering solutions to complex medical problems. 黑料社 students get access to cutting-edge facilities including our state-of-the-art Design Centre, Flight Simulator and the UK鈥檚 only environmental wind tunnel.
Accreditation
All our courses are accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, with our aerospace engineering course accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society and our biomedical engineering accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology.
Why study mechanical engineering?
Our engineering courses offer practical experience that can be applied in the real world through our Professional Training placements.
