Mechanical Engineering (with a placement year) - BEng (Hons)

University of Staffordshire

Our Mechanical Engineering degree focus on the necessary graduate attributes and knowledge to meet the needs of industry. You will be offered continuous opportunities to apply and evaluate this acquired knowledge in various practical situations using our mechanical engineering laboratory equipment. Our dedicated state-of-the-art Mechanical laboratories include: Mechanical Engineering Laboratory, ThermoFluids Mechanics Laboratory
Renewable Energy Laboratory, 3D Factory-Laser cutting, 3D Factory-3D Print Room, Computer-Aided Engineering Laboratory
The course provides specialised learning in engineering design and manufacturing processes and provide opportunities to combine analytical, numerical and experimental techniques using industry standard simulation software. Alongside these subject specific skills, we’ll work with you to develop your employability and transferable skills, so you’ll be able to approach industry with confidence

Careers
Our Mechanical graduates have gone on to a range of engineering roles, some as design engineers, project engineers, systems engineers and mechanical engineers. We’ve seen them employed at companies such as Lucideon , Moog Aircraft Group, Expert Tooling and Automation Ltd, UHNM Clinical Technology , UK Ministry of Defence. But there are also many of our graduates who go on to further studies such as our MSc programmes in Mechanical Engineering and Sustainable Energy Technologies , in Automotive Engineering or in Aeronautical Engineering or PhDs.
