Stage 1 will provide a broad introduction to the principles of engineering. You'll get hands-on from the very beginning of your degree, working in a team to design and build a working wind turbine as part of a project.

Stages 2 covers: mechanical, electrical and materials engineering sciences (50%), engineering design and manufacturing (20%), engineering mathematics (18%), and management and professional skills, such as computing and enterprise (12%).

In Stage 3, your studies continue to cover a broad range of mechanical engineering topics, so you develop a wide set of skills and knowledge ready to take into the workplace. 

You'll also work on a project based in local industry in a small team of your peers and also complete an extended piece of work on a topic selected from a wide range of projects. This is aimed at developing your capabilities as an engineer in areas such as project planning and data analysis.
