Course overview

Mechanical engineers are in higher demand than ever before, thanks to a global increase in demand from the automotive and nanotechnology industries. This engaging and flexible course combines important components from multiple engineering disciplines to provide you with a broad-based, industry-informed education that will prepare you for work in a number of industries. Our BSc (Hons) Mechanical Engineering degree provides a solid theoretical and practical basis for individuals seeking to enter one of the many job paths available to mechanical engineers. This critical role is becoming increasingly important as society seeks to tackle the huge challenges that lie ahead. Mechanical engineers will be at the forefront of offering solutions to future global concerns, from handling the demands of a growing and ageing population to discovering new sustainable energy approaches and safeguarding our environment. This BSc (Hons) Mechanical Engineering degree is ideal for those who have always wanted to work in engineering. This course is a versatile and broad undergraduate program that will help you focus on making your mark in the world of mechanical engineering. Among many other subjects, you will learn the key concepts of mechanical engineering, engineering applications, advanced materials and structures, advanced thermofluids, and control during the three-year qualification. This course trains future engineers for meaningful professional work in the Mechanical Engineering field. You will improve your cognitive, intellectual, and problem-solving abilities as they relate to mechanical engineering. The demand for experienced and certified mechanical engineers is growing, fueled by a changing economic landscape and the need for new technical solutions. With a degree in mechanical engineering, you can work in a variety of fields such as advanced manufacturing, product design, biomedical engineering, artificial intelligence, and many more. Students in a mechanical engineering curriculum learn about all aspects of physical systems, from machines to gas and liquid flow. A mechanical engineer learns how to make parts, select materials, assess stress, and determine reliability. Some specialise in fluid systems, designing transport systems for specific fluid flows at certain temperatures and pressures. Graduates learn how to translate physical system specs into operational pieces. Mechanical engineers play critical roles in a variety of businesses. An antenna manufacturer, for example, may appear to be purely an electronic design, but mechanical engineers must design the metal structures that constitute the heart of the antennas. Furthermore, materials must be selected to endure weather variables like heat and wind. Antenna towers must be large, solid, and strong enough to support the antennas. These designs must also be cost-effective. Similar design responsibilities can be found in a variety of manufacturing organisations.

Entry requirements

Fees & funding

Course fee per year: £9,250 The Tuition Fee of the course may vary depending on the institution you wish to study at, as well as your status in the UK. The course is available for UK/EU & International Students and eligible for Student Loans Company (SLC) funding to help cover the cost of your tuition fees and other expenses. If you are an UK/EU citizen or living in the UK on an Indefinite stay, apart from the tuition fees, you could also receive support from the government via Student Loans Company to cover some living costs while studying. The maintenance loan depends on each individual's circumstances.
Fees breakdown:
Tuition fee loans cover the full cost of your course and are paid directly to the course provider.
Student Finance has to be paid back, however, you only make Student Loan repayments once you've left your course AND are earning enough. Repayments vary with your salary, and stop altogether if your income drops too low.
Maintenance Loan pays for day-to-day living expenses like rent, bills, food and books. Unlike the fees loan, it's paid directly to your student bank account once a term and you can spend it on anything you like.
Students can also apply for other types of special support grants, such as childcare grants or Disabled Students' Allowance if eligible.
Moreover, almost all universities offer a selection of student bursaries. These are cash gifts you usually don't have to repay.
Please submit an enquiry to find out more or use our calculator to estimate how much Maintenance Loan you can get and how much you will have to repay per month once you finish your course.
