Overview
As well as our three-year course, we offer four- and five-year options. Choose from a built-in placement year in industry or an integrated Masters (MEng) – or both. Imagine it. A whole year working for one of the biggest names in the technology, manufacturing or automotive industries. And like all our engineering courses, Mechanical Engineering shares a common first year. That means you can switch degrees in second year if you want to choose a different pathway.
In your first year of the Mechanical Engineering programme at University of Hull you’ll gain the core theoretical and practical skills you need throughout your time here and beyond. CAD, programming and control and thermo fluids are just a few of the areas you’ll cover. The mathematics module is specifically geared towards engineering applications. You’ll also take part in Global Challenge, where you’ll work in a team to tackle a design and build project.
But it’s not all study and work. There are lots of extra-curricular activities for you to get involved with as well. Join our thriving Robotics Society, and become part of our Hull Electric Racing Team (HERT). As a member of HERT, you’ll help to build a single seater racing car and compete against other students at Silverstone.
Future Prospects
Mechanical engineers are involved in almost everything we use. From nanotechnology to healthcare equipment to planes, windfarms and even spacecraft.
Your transferable skills will open up careers across a range of industries. And with a national shortage of engineers, you're likely to be in high demand. Our graduates have gone on to work with BAE Systems, British Energy, the Royal Navy, Williams F1, Rolls-Royce, and more.
Our course is fully accredited. This shows employers you’ve studied a degree that meets globally recognised standards. It also puts you on the pathway to Chartered Engineer status. We’re also in the process of becoming accredited by the Women in Engineering Society.
