Electrical and Mechanical Engineering - MEng (Hons)

The University of Edinburgh

Electronics and electrical engineers pioneer change in the modern technologies that underpin our world.Mechanical engineers turn ideas into realities, by creating systems and machines, generating movement and power.Electromechanical engineers come together to work on everything from energy generation and hybrid vehicles to aircraft design and satellite technology. They are creative problem-solvers and are skilled at working in interdisciplinary teams to deal with society's ever more complex challenges.At Edinburgh, we have particular specialisms in:* renewable energy, including marine energy* materials science and engineering* engineering at the interface of biology and medicine* design and systems engineering to tackle multidisciplinary problems such as climate change**United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals**Based on our compulsory course material, this degree aligns with many of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the top three being:* SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy* SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure* SDG 13: Climate Action **Ties to industry**Our Industrial Liaison Boards include senior representatives from prominent engineering companies. This has, and continues to, influence our curriculum and programme development.**Programme benefits*** An enviable suite of facilities, including specialist laboratories, a student makerspace and cutting-edge industry-standard equipment.* Research-led teaching by internationally leading academics.* Strong links to industry with excellent career prospects, industry relevant curriculum and internships opportunities.* A balanced curriculum covering theoretical and practical skills and individual and group work.
