Combine your creative flair and technical skill with a Product Design Engineering degree from Canterbury Christ Church University (CCCU).

Our degree has been designed in collaboration with IMecE, a leading professional industry body, and will enable you to transform your ideas into physical, practical solutions.

At CCCU, this industry-focussed degree will enable you to critically think and collaborate with others so you can produce practical solutions that have commercial potential. You’ll learn how to integrate engineering and design skills via practical and industry related design projects, transforming you into a confident and creative product design engineer.

The CDIO approach is an international engineering education model, developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It allows you to learn in a practical, hands-on way to find creative, evaluated solutions to industry related engineering challenges. We are one of the only handful of universities in the UK to offer CDIO.

What's more, with a Product Design Engineering degree from CCCU, you'll get prepared for a variety of sectors including consumer products, aerospace, and health.
