What is MEng Engineering?

MEng Engineering is an integrated Master’s degree combining undergraduate and postgraduate engineering study. It provides advanced technical depth alongside broad interdisciplinary engineering knowledge.

The first two years establish a shared engineering foundation across disciplines. Later years focus on advanced topics, specialist options, and research-informed learning.

Throughout the course, you’ll apply theory through practical projects, teamwork, and an individual major project.

By graduation, you’ll have technical knowledge, hands-on experience, and professional skills for industry, further study, or engineering registration.

Course Modules

Year 1 is made up of compulsory modules which will provide you with a solid grounding in mathematics and engineering. These modules include Engineering Studies, Engineering Principles and Law and Mathematics for Scientists. As your studies progress, you will develop knowledge of general, Mechanical or Electronic and Electrical engineering. In Years 2 and 3, you will have a combination of compulsory modules - such as Analogue and Digital Electronics - and optional modules such as Vibration and Dynamics or Meteorology and Global Environmental Change. You will also complete an individual research project in your final year which you can be based on your own engineering interests. In your final year, you will complete a team-based design project required for Engineering Council accreditation. This will give you the opportunity to put what you have learnt into practice and address and solve a real-world problem.
