Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Degrees

What is Mechanical Engineering?

Mechanical Engineering is a diverse subject. It explores the need to design and manufacture everything. From small individual parts and devices, such as microscale sensors and inkjet printer nozzles. We also look at large systems, such as spacecraft and machine tools.

Mechanical engineers are involved at every stage of taking a product from an idea through to the marketplace.
