"**AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING:**- is about how aircraft are designed, constructed and powered, how they are used and how they are controlled for safe operation. You’ll take part in practical laboratories, including running a jet engine test and a flight-testing course in a Saab 340B aircraft during year 5 of the MEng. There are contributions to aircraft design classes by engineers from the industrial sector and, whenever possible, visits to industrial sites. In year 5 MEng students learn about aircraft handling qualities, aircraft operations, and advanced structural analysis techniques. Half of this year is devoted to project work, which can be carried...

Engineering is a broad subject, encompassing many different activities across various fields of human endeavour. While engineers work in many different industries, from aerospace and automotive to energy and medicine, all engineers use creativity to design solutions to the problems we face in the world today.

Engineering is one of the most satisfying professions. You get results and, at the end of the day, you get to see your work in action. As an Engineer, you need to be good at mathematics and to have a sound grasp of basic sciences, but you must also...

**Mechanical Engineering with Aeronautics (5 year MEng programme)**: This degree programme bridges the divide between aeronautics and mechanical engineering and provides its graduates with the crossdisciplinary background needed to flourish in one of the most challenging engineering fields.

You will benefit from our strong links with industry. MEng students take part in a flight-testing course in a Saab 340B aircraft.

Mechanical Engineering is a highly relevant field involving products that affect our lives in countless ways, from the systems that maintain a flow of water to the faucet in your kitchen sink, to the spacecrafts that launch astronauts and satellites to far-flung parts of the solar system.

This program of study is designed to help you develop the skills and knowledge required to build a career as an engineer in a wide range of fields, including automotive, energy and aerospace, among others.

The degree is application-based, using industry-related software, and includes laboratory-based investigations as...

Mechanical engineering combines a range of technical, creative, and management skills. It plays an important role in a range of sectors including aerospace, energy management, and surgical innovation.

This degree focuses on mechatronics - the integration of electrical and mechanical components. This means you'll learn to design and manufacture modern, high performance products across a range of industries.

You'll also learn about microcontroller programming, software for computer-aided design (CAD), and how to implement engineering solutions with economic constraints. For example, you'll take part in an engineering design project where you'll design and manufacture a...

Almost any machine or process you can think of in modern life has benefited from the input of a mechanical engineer.

Mechanical engineers are responsible for the analysis, design and manufacture of an enormous range of industrial products and systems; almost anything with moving parts, from washing machines and wind turbines to automobiles and aircraft.

As a mechanical engineer, you will use your creative and inventive skills to design and improve products and processes, alongside:

* fundamental physics

* complex mathematics

*...
