MEng/BEng in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering

Electronics and Mechanical Engineering spans more than one discipline in the School of Engineering and Electronics to create a course that provides a unique insight. Work is done when one form of energy is converted to another useful form. Either the energy conversion or its safe control involves electrical, mechanical and/or electro-mechanical processes. Seldom, if ever, can these disciplines serve society independently from one another. Nearly every manufacturing industry, any automated or controlled process and all transport systems rely on a combination of electrical and mechanical engineering. Both established and leading edge technologies will always demand graduate engineers who can practise their profession across all electrical and mechanical interfaces.

Graduates from this degree have a unique combination of knowledge, understanding and skills in both Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. As such they are highly sought after by national and international manufacturing, power generation, automation and control industries.

The MEng and BEng degree courses in Electronics and in Mechanical Engineering have a common structure in the early years with the core subjects of Mathematics, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. In the later years of the course specialist subjects are taught including Power Systems and Machines, Dynamics, Energy Systems and Digital System Design to name but a few.
