Mechanical engineers work in almost every sector people can think of – energy, transport, aviation, robotics, pharmaceuticals and the motor or marine industries. They focus on the technological aspect of engineering, and developing new techniques and tools that will solve real-world problems. There’s also the opportunity to specialize on an Advanced Vehicle Engineering pathway.
Students will spend time getting hands-on in the London South Bank University virtual engineering lab and with the University's state-of-the-art 3D printing technology, and their individual final-year project will be a 'design-make-test' project that simulates the tasks and challenges mechanical engineers face. The University's course accreditation means that students are on the road to achieving Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. Students will graduate with an impressive skillset and understanding, and as a valued member of a department with a proven track record for amazing future job prospects.
