Mechanical Engineering with a Year in Industry MEng (Hons) at University of Liverpool

A degree in Mechanical Engineering is the basis for a professional career in a broad range of industry sectors.

Mechanical Engineering is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines. It is sought by employers in almost all sectors of engineering and beyond. Our graduates go on to work in fields such as medicine and healthcare, sustainable power generation, environmental technology, food production, sports science, aerospace, automotive, construction, nuclear, mechatronics and robotics, industrial product design, manufacturing, and project management.

Engineering graduates are also in demand in sectors such as accountancy, management consulting, and logistics. More than any other discipline, a degree in mechanical engineering is preparation for an enormously wide range of careers.

Our professionally accredited degree programmes offer an exciting blend of learning experiences designed to ensure our students not only master the scientific fundamentals, but also develop the skills, attitudes and experience demanded by 21st century engineering and society. Our ethos is to spend as much time outside the lecture theatre as possible. Our students spend a significant amount of their time working in teams to apply their learning in the solution of practical problems; or in the design, building and testing of new products processes and systems. This means our graduates are very well prepared for their careers ahead, and industry recognises them as highly employable.

All mechanical engineering programmes are accredited, or pending accreditation, by our professional body, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and are a recognised qualification on the route to Chartered Engineer status.
