Overview

The curriculum of the Mechanical Engineering with a Year in Industry course at University of Bristol embeds a diverse set of professional engineering and management skills spanning four core areas:

design and manufacture

dynamics and control

materials

energy and fluid flow.

All mechanical engineering students share a common curriculum in the first two years, covering the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering. Teaching is delivered via lectures, seminars, laboratories, design classes and short projects in modelling and manufacturing.

Key facts

You will spend your third year applying the knowledge gained in the first two years of study in an industrial environment. There is no direct entry onto this course but you can transfer from our other mechanical engineering courses if you reach a high academic standard and are successful at an interview with industry. Places are limited and highly competitive.

In your fourth year, you will apply the principles you have learnt to real, complex engineering applications. A major element is the open-ended individual research project, which requires independent and creative thinking.

In the final year, you will select from a range of specialist options and undertake a substantial group project to address an open-ended technical challenge.
