Electro-Mechanical Engineering BEng (Hons)

Considered an art by many, engineering is a combination of science and technology concerned with solving complex problems, such as machinery, infrastructure, design and more. Practitioners of this discipline have the capacity to work on significant global issues, such as the effects of climate change or improving city infrastructure.

Engineering allows you to combine creativity with precision every day. This qualification can give you broad and diverse career options, including molecular, transport, power, optical, vehicle and web engineering to name a few. Engineers are always in demand and with the right skills and qualifications, this industry can lead you to frequent travel, passion projects and a very fulfilling career.

Alongside possible international opportunities*, you get the chance to conduct critical research with our experienced staff, learn from skilled guest visitors (subject to availability) and take part in an invaluable placement year.

Entry Requirements

Degree104 UCAS tariff points. Minimum 5 GCSEs graded 9-4 / A* - C including Maths and English. Minimum two A2 levels or BTEC equivalent qualification, and a Physics or Maths based A level or equivalent.

English language requirements

  • IELTS: 6.0 (HNC - year 1/HND - year 2) or 6.5 (Degree/Top Up - year 3).

If you don't meet the English language requirements, you can achieve the level you need by successfully completing a pre-sessional English programme before you start your course.

Career Prospects

With an ever-growing demand of engineering professionals in all industries, graduates of this course may have an expansive list of career paths to explore. Successfully completing the BEng means your chances of employment could be improved, and the level at which you enter the jobs market could mean a higher salary.

Successful graduates will be knowledgeable across a range of engineering disciplines. Graduates can go on to work in a vast range of engineering sectors such as software, nuclear, textile or civil engineering.Many of our graduates have progressed to postgraduate study and are working towards a master's qualification in fields such as petroleum engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering and electrical and electronic engineering. Previous graduates have progressed to become Engineering Technicians, Project Managers and Trainee Engineering Lecturers.

Course Details

On successful completion, you will be able to:

  • Critically appraise an engineering scenario with a view to apply innovative technologies to improve efficiency or effectiveness.
  • Explain engineering principles, solve simple, practical problems in an engineering context, show practical skills in a laboratory/workshop environment and have the educational preparation for a career as an engineering technician.
  • Use an enquiring, critical and reflective approach to engineering studies. This degree focuses on the demands of the modern engineering workplace, encompassing the main engineering disciplines. This will reflect contemporary practices, emphasise practical skills and student employability. High levels of support are a cornerstone of the course, with students working on diverse realistic projects throughout their final year.
  • With the pace of technological development, engineering should be considered as applied problem-solving. Integrating the different technologies at the heart of modern engineering, this course aims to provide a grounding in a variety of different engineering disciplines before developing skills in accessing information, converting it into knowledge and applying and evaluating it.
