6 Learn from the best

Be inspired by internationally recognised experts who are passionate about your success.

6 Gain real-world skills

Experience hands-on learning in world-class labs, workshops and facilities.

6 Engineer your future career

Benefit from accredited courses and strong industry links that keep your learning relevant.

Engineer your future

Many of our BEng / MEng degrees share a common first year, giving you a broad foundation and the freedom to explore.

This built-in flexibility means you can easily transfer between courses throughout and at the end of your first year – ensuring your degree evolves with your interests and future ambitions.

^{Mechanical engineering, marine engineering, marine technology and civil / civil and coastal engineering benefit from shared content as do electrical and electronic engineering and robotics.}

BEng or MEng?
BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) is the traditional way of studying engineering and involves three years of study in your chosen subject, or four years with a placement.

MEng (integrated masters) is a four-year degree (or five with a placement) that extends your studies to masters level and provides a quicker, more direct route to chartered engineer status.

Degrees with a foundation year

If your current qualifications don’t allow you direct entry to degree level, a degree with a foundation year may be a good option.

The foundation year is an integral part of the extended degree and successful completion of the foundation year (Year 0) will enable you to confidently progress onto Year 1 of your chosen degree.

Choosing �� provided me with a fantastic understanding of the industry, knowledge of practical engineering design and naval architecture.

Christopher, BEng (Hons) Marine Technology graduate

The Marine Building is a great facility to undertake practical sessions. The course was varied and the range of modules covered was great, which prepared me for entering the engineering industry as a Site Engineer.

Chloe, BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering graduate

Studying robotics at �� gave me a vast area of knowledge and an excellent foundation to use a wide range of robotic engineering applications, from walking robots to assembly line arm robots.

Matthew, MEng (Hons) Robotics graduate

Sam Duffield is shaping the future of engineering – and those who will build it

“I loved my studies in ��… the hands-on experience, the amazing lecturers, and every opportunity they created shaped the engineer I am today. That combination of experience and enthusiasm is something I definitely hope to pass on.”
