Overview

By choosing to study the MEng  Product Design Engineering (Hons)  degree from  Loughborough University  you will understand aesthetic and ergonomic design principles, industrial design, product development, linked with a strong emphasis on understanding the manufacturing processes needed for your products, and the underpinning engineering science that will tell you how it all works.

What's the difference between MEng and BEng?

• The structure of the first two years are common between the BEng and MEng and provide you with design core skills, combined with manufacturing technology and processes modules. The application of design and the solution of consumer and industrial problems is a strong theme throughout the courses.
• The MEng structure is distinct from the BEng courses in the third and fourth academic years, providing broadening and deepening of the design and engineering learning experience. It enables further development of the technical aspects and addresses the strategic and managerial challenge facing the implementation of new professional approaches in industry.
• The MEng allows students to deepen their understanding of the role of product design engineering in both product and production development. Additionally, during the fourth academic year, MEng students from different degree courses are brought together in multi-disciplinary teams for a range of yearlong projects, to solve challenging industrially based problems at a number of different host companies.
