Informed by our world-leading research and designed with input from our industry partners, this is a master’s level course designed to shape you into a highly employable engineering graduate.

All through your time here, you'll use industry standard equipment, and learn about state-of-the-art applications in robotics, industrial control and advanced manufacturing.

Year one provides a solid foundation in the theory of complex electro-mechanical systems and a fundamental understanding of mathematics and computing, with a focus on controlling robotic systems. You'll have the opportunity to design and analyse complex electro-mechanical systems as part of a team.

In year two you will explore areas like programming in languages such as C++, mechanical design and intelligent systems, you’ll go on to apply your skills to a practical project. This will see you designing a system using 3D CAD tools, and building robots in our innovative iForge Makerspace.

In year three you'll take specialist modules that cover robotics and machine learning, amongst others - tailoring your degree with optional study areas, and getting detailed experience in the lifecycle of engineering projects through group work.

Your academic study will then be put into context with a year-long industrial placement, where you’ll be challenged and developed into an engineer. You will take responsibility for sourcing your industrial placement, with plenty of advice and support from our dedicated Engineering Placement Team.

In your final year, you’ll bring everything you have learned together to complete an advanced project. You’ll collaborate with a world-leading academic to embed technical knowledge and expertise, and advance your understanding of topics such as deep learning, machine vision and cybersecurity.

This MEng course provides you with an extra year of study to develop strong skills in robotics and an enhanced understanding, to hit the ground running in your engineering career, plus a full year in industry to put your learning into practice.
