UndergraduateCourse summary
Engineers are the skilled problem solvers who develop the products and systems in response to the evolving needs of future generations. Ongoing advances in computing power and the increasing use of integrated systems that link mechanical, electrical and other engineering systems together is creating new industrial sectors that need a sophisticated skillset. Our BEng Engineering degree is an interdisciplinary General Engineering programme, and you will learn mechatronics, digital design, mechanical design and control systems, equipping you to design and build complex automated systems. You will develop expertise in robotics, smart manufacture and systems engineering, and learn to apply your new skills to contemporary engineering challenges. As more industrial and home devices start using sophisticated intelligent systems, people with a general engineering skillset are in increasing demand due to their ability to integrate these different systems.
