You'll spend your third year studying mechanical engineering at a leading university in the USA or Canada. This course combines core mechanical engineering with the chance to experience a different culture and develop international business skills. At levels one and two, you'll study the fundamentals of mechanical engineering, mathematics and management. Modules include applied dynamics, mechanics of fluids, mechanics of solids, applied thermodynamics, mechanical behaviour of materials, and electrical and electronic engineering. In your third year in North America, you'll study an agreed set of mechanical engineering courses. These mirror our modules at the same level. Your final year contains optional modules and an extended individual project that mean you can specialise in your area of interest.

Our graduates have gone on to careers in manufacturing, transport, power generation or engineering consultancies. Many work with prestigious companies such as Rolls-Royce, Airbus, Atkins, Siemens, Arup, Jaguar Land Rover, Interfleet Technology, Network Rail and Transport for London.
