Engineering is a diverse subject area, touching on nearly every aspect of our modern lives. Engineers make contributions to the water we drink, the food we eat, the design of our homes and the efficiency of transportation. The General Engineering programme is designed to give you the flexibility to explore the various disciplines before choosing your specialist field.
In an increasingly connected and collaborative engineering environment, understanding of each engineering discipline is essential. Therefore the first year teaching will cover the fundamentals of a variety of engineering subject areas to provide this foundational knowledge. This will develop your teamwork skills with other engineering students, operating across traditional boundaries to develop innovative solutions to the problems of the future. This approach is favoured by our industrial partners, producing well-rounded, knowledgeable graduates. From the second year onwards you will specialise in the branch of engineering of your choice.
