Mechanical Engineering Beng (Hon)

You’ll get the perfect blend of learning, in and outside of the classroom. We’ll refine your creative problem solving skills through exploring the latest digital technologies and providing hands-on skills, as well as building your confidence and experience through live projects and our annual industry Grand Challenge.<br/><br/>As well as the support you’ll get from expert staff and technicians, there’s the chance to set your own direction with a range of optional modules, online resources and projects. Recently students have worked on reverse engineering everyday objects, designing and building a Mars lander, and using industry standard software packages to design and build a model bridge.<br/><br/>This all adds up to a confident, work ready graduate who has loads of career options – medical, environmental, automotive, aerospace, resource, advance manufacturing, alternative energy and many more.<br/><br/>Our Mechanical Engineering courses are highly practical and use real examples and projects from industry. On this course you’ll be guided how to analyse and solve mechanical engineering problems by producing your own creative and innovative solutions using the latest technology.<br/><br/>With the focus firmly on problem-solving and live project work, we aim to give you three to four years of industry experience before you graduate. Who wouldn’t want that on their CV?<br/><br/>**Accreditation**<br/>Accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.<br/><br/>**Recognised By Industry**<br/>This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects.

Nottingham Trent University (NTU) is a university like no other – their combination of world-class facilities, quality teaching, award-winning student support and a buzzing student community provides a student experience like no other. <br/><br/>Ranked 2nd in the UK for Student Life (University Compare 2026), NTU is a place that everyone can call home. Artisanal chefs can perfect their choux buns in industry-standard kitchens, athletes can test their skills at local sports clubs & major stadiums, and lawyers can build up their confidence in the mock courtroom. With over 130 clubs and societies to choose from, you'll also have the chance to try out new activities and meet people from across the globe.<br/><br/>NTU is based in the Midlands, the cheapest region to live as a student in England (National Student Money Survey 2023). With over 60,000 students, it’s compact, friendly, and well-located, and offers amazing experiences, life-changing opportunities, and a unique spirit. <br/><br/>Start your NTU journey this September with guaranteed accommodation (T&C's apply). <br/><br/>"Coming here was the best decision I ever made; the course is fantastic, everything has been really easy, and I honestly couldn't see myself anywhere else now."<br/>Katie Hewiston, BA (Hons) Fashion Management
