The BEng (Hons) Integrated Engineering course at the University of Plymouth is a multidisciplinary degree, covering civil, mechanical, electrical, electronic, robotics, computing and mathematics for modern engineers.

Pushing traditional engineering boundaries
This course goes beyond traditional engineering boundaries, combining civil, mechanical, electrical, electronic, robotics, computing and mathematics to prepare engineers for the digital age.

Be ready for industry 4.0
We equip you with skills to navigate cyber-physical systems and rapidly evolving technologies, ensuring they can meet modern industry demands.

Enhance your employability
The integration of multiple engineering disciplines fosters creativity, critical thinking and professional flexibility, leading to improved career opportunities.

This course is for you if...

• you're interested in a multidisciplinary degree, covering civil, mechanical, electrical, electronic, robotics, computing and mathematics#

• you're passionate about designing and finding solutions to problems

• you seek hands-on experience in projects to put your learning into practice

• you're keen to learn from industry-experienced professionals and researchers.

Year 1
Get ready for an exciting start to your career as a multi-disciplinary engineer. Our “learning by doing” ethos is at the heart of our teaching approach. You will join forces with fellow engineering students in our unique, purpose-built laboratories to experience the fascinating world of engineering materials, structures and electronics. Alongside this hands-on approach, you will develop skills in software engineering and mathematics allowing you to model how the real world behaves.

By the end of this year, you'll have developed confidence in the fundamentals of programming, electronic circuitry and computer aided design, while using your imagination and creativity to resolve real-world engineering challenges.

Year 2
Choose the route that leads to your perfect career. In the second year, you will choose modules to propel you along one of four inter-disciplinary pathways, allowing you the freedom to tailor your learning to your career ambitions.

Pathway 1: Mechanical/Civil Engineering
Pathway 2: Electro/Mechanical Engineering
Pathway 3: Electro/Robotic Engineering
Pathway 4: Robotic/Computing Engineering

In parallel, an extensive programme of career development support will supercharge your professional and transferable skills in readiness for the workplace; helping you to find the perfect placement.

Optional placement year
The optional placement year is a fantastic opportunity to advance your career as a professional engineer by working in a commercial engineering team. The placement gives you invaluable experience beyond the classroom environment, developing skills crucial to your future employment.

The whole world awaits: our engineering students find opportunities in a diverse range of sectors including Formula 1, medical robotics, nuclear engineering, space communications and offshore renewables. Placement often results in an offer of graduate employment.

Final year
The most significant element of this year is your dissertation project where you will apply all the skills and knowledge that you have learned to explore a topic that you find truly fascinating. The project is a hands-on research challenge allowing you to develop deeper insight and knowledge into an area that aligns to your careers aspirations. You will continue the pathway chosen in Stage 2 to become a truly inter-disciplinary engineer ready to tackle the essential challenges of the future.
