In a major design project you will put your learned knowledge of conceptual design, manufacturing and testing into practice. \n\n**Core modules**\nEngineering Mathematics\nEngineering Practice\nMechanical Design\nEnergy Systems\nDesign Project\nMaterials and Manufacture\n\n**Year 2**\nIn the second year, you’ll learn to model, analyse and control the behaviour of mechanical and thermal systems while deepening your understanding of materials and energy conversion. You’ll also strengthen your engineering practice through multidisciplinary design projects and gain practical skills in manufacturing processes, quality control and designing products for real-world applications. \n\n**Core modules**\nDynamics and Control\nEngineering Systems\nMechanics of Materials\nThermofluids\nEngineering Design\nManufacturing Engineering\n\n**Optional Placement Year**\nBy doing a year placement in industry you’ll gain the right amount of work experience to reach Engineering Technician (EngTech) status. Our students have been on placement with companies such as Paxton, Triumph and Caterpillar. \n\n**Final year**\nIn your final year, you’ll deepen your expertise in control systems, product design and advanced manufacturing, learning to analyse, simulate and optimise complex engineering applications while considering real-world societal and environmental needs. You’ll also undertake an individual project that brings together your research, design and technical skills, with the option to further specialise through advanced study in materials engineering or renewable technologies. \n\n**Core modules**\nDynamics and Control\nProduct Design\nManufacturing Systems\nIndividual Project\n\n**Options***\nAdvanced Materials Engineering\nRenewable Technologies\n\n*Option modules are indicative and may change, depending on timetabling and staff availability.",

The annual fee increase will not exceed the UK government's maximum regulated tuition fee limit set for the relevant academic year.  Many of our courses include the option of a salaried placement year. Tuition fees for a placement year are charged at a lower rate of £1850.  The international tuition fees listed above are for full-time courses during the academic year 2025-26. Further tuition fees are payable in each year of study. Non-regulated tuition fees, which usually apply to international students and UK postgraduate students* are subject to an annual increase of a maximum of 5% or the Consumer Prices Index (CPI), whichever is higher.\n*Some designated postgraduate courses are regulated by the UK government – the annual fee increase for eligible UK / Home students on these designated courses will not exceed the UK government’s regulated tuition fee limit set for the relevant academic year.",

In a major design project you will put your learned knowledge of conceptual design, manufacturing and testing into practice. \n\n**Core modules**\nEngineering Mathematics\nEngineering Practice\nMechanical Design\nEnergy Systems\nDesign Project\nMaterials and Manufacture\n\n**Year 2**\nIn the second year, you’ll learn to model, analyse and control the behaviour of mechanical and thermal systems while deepening your understanding of materials and energy conversion. You’ll also strengthen your engineering practice through multidisciplinary design projects and gain practical skills in manufacturing processes, quality control and designing products for real-world applications. \n\n**Core modules**\nDynamics and Control\nEngineering Systems\nMechanics of Materials\nThermofluids\nEngineering Design\nManufacturing Engineering\n\n**Optional Placement Year**\nBy doing a year placement in industry you’ll gain the right amount of work experience to reach Engineering Technician (EngTech) status. Our students have been on placement with companies such as Paxton, Triumph and Caterpillar. \n\n**Final year**\nIn your final year, you’ll deepen your expertise in control systems, product design and advanced manufacturing, learning to analyse, simulate and optimise complex engineering applications while considering real-world societal and environmental needs. You’ll also undertake an individual project that brings together your research, design and technical skills, with the option to further specialise through advanced study in materials engineering or renewable technologies. \n\n**Core modules**\nDynamics and Control\nProduct Design\nManufacturing Systems\nIndividual Project\n\n**Options***\nAdvanced Materials Engineering\nRenewable Technologies\n\n*Option modules are indicative and may change, depending on timetabling and staff availability.",
