School of Mechanical,Materials and ManufacturingEngineering

If you’re looking for a top quality Mechanical Engineering course with excellent job prospects this is the one for you.

At Nottingham, our mechanical engineering courses are structured such that the majority of modules in the first two years are common. This gives you the option to switch between courses at any point up to the start of your 3rd year. The first two years give you wide-ranging design teaching equipping you in the use of Pro-Engineer and bringing you to a level of competence in engineering machining. You study engineering science and engineering maths and each year you undertake comprehensive design projects that encourage you to develop as an engineer.

BEng / MEng Mechanical EngineeringUCAS codes H302 (BEng) /H300 (MEng)

Our Mechanical Engineering course covers all the engineering science, design and computing you need to become a chartered mechanical engineer (MEng) and is fully accredited by the IMechE (MEng and BEng).

Evacuation chair for the mobility impaired – a 4th year project

If you wish to continue into the 4th year you hone and enhance your skills via the Group Development Project. At the end of 4 years you’ll be on the way to becoming a chartered engineer with excellent job prospects in engineering, business, management consultancy, finance . . .

Individual Project – Appropriate Technology – Design a car battery charger for the developing world

In your third year you work on an individual project that can range from very design oriented to highly mathematical or research-based. In this year you also get to choose optional modules from the wide range available.

Have you got what it takes? We’re looking for highly motivated students fascinated by engineering with a sound mathematical background.

Our typical entry grades are AAB to BBB.

We also offer bursaries to high flying students.

Year Four: In the fourth year you will undertake a group development project that comprises 33% of your time. This project addresses a real industrial problem from concept to working prototype with a business plan. Core modules equip you for a top engineering or business career while options allow you to follow your interests
