About MEng Engineering Design with Study in Industry The first two years of the course involve structures, materials, dynamics, fluids, computing, mathematics and electronics alongside other engineering undergraduates. In year one there is dedicated teaching in design concepts and computer-aided design (CAD). During year two, these skills are enhanced through a group design project, and you will choose one of three pathways which lead to specialist streams in years four and five, currently: Energy Water Built Environment Materials Thermofluids Avionics Aerospace Mechatronics Dynamics and Control. The broader context is taught through professional studies and project management. The Research and Communications units will develop your skills in both written and oral communication, and allow you to research socio-economic or legal areas that interest you. The major thrust of the final two years is a group research and design project, sponsored by one of the industrial partners. Examples of previous projects include: redesigning Blackfriars Railway Station; designing a security robot; re-scoping the use of an aero-engine; designing a hydropower system for use in developing countries. Our degree is accredited by numerous bodies under licence from the Engineering Council. An accredited degree provides you with some or all of the underpinning knowledge, understanding and skills for eventual registration as an Incorporated (IEng) or Chartered Engineer (CEng).

The majority of our graduates become professional engineers. The qualities developed during the degree and the quality of the students we recruit mean that Engineering Design graduates are highly valued by companies looking for numerate, well-organised and articulate applicants. Our partner companies - Atkins, Arup, Babcock, DCA, GE Oil & Gas, GE Aviation Systems, GL Garrad Hassan, GKN, Parsons Brinckerhoff, Renishaw, Rolls-Royce and Vestas - rate our students highly, which is why they continue to support this degree.
