BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering with a Year Abroad

Engineering is all about the pursuit of solutions. Mechanical engineers play a vital role in the design and manufacture of almost anything with moving parts, from household appliances to renewable energy systems. This four-year course will foster your curiosity about how things work, refine your problem-solving skills and equip you for a rewarding career in a range of engineering sectors. You’ll follow an integrated programme in your first year, building the knowledge, skills, and industrial connections you need to excel as an engineer. From year two, you’ll specialise in mechanical engineering, studying solid and fluid mechanics, control systems, and thermodynamics alongside design and manufacturing. You’ll spend your third year studying abroad with one of our partner universities, developing independence, confidence and flexibility. You’ll complete your studies at UEA with an individual project on a topic you propose.
