Introduction

The programme has been designed to embrace a broad spectrum of Mechanical Engineering activities and to produce industry ready graduates by embedding within it, the transferable and team-working skill-sets that employers view as important.  The programme modules have been designed to complement each other, to deepen the students’ knowledge and to enhance their employment opportunities in a wide range of industries especially in the mechanical or manufacturing industry sectors.

The overall aims of the programme are to:

• Produce graduates with an enthusiasm for mechanical engineering, an appreciation of its application in different contexts and to involve them in an intellectually stimulating and satisfying experience of learning and studying.
• Produce graduates with the ability to apply their knowledge and understanding in order to be competitive and creative in the industry.
• Produce graduates with the ability to apply a variety of methods and skills in the investigation and solution of real mechanical engineering problems.
• Produce graduates with the qualities and skills for employability, enabling them to either pursue programmes of further study or to move directly into their chosen employment in industry and manage their own continuous professional development.
