Integrated Mechanical and Electrical Engineering MEng (Hons)

4 years, starting in September 2019

Develop core knowledge of systems engineering across both mechanical and electrical engineering to boost your career prospects in industry.

Our course gives you a unique chance to balance an understanding of mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering sciences with a focus on systems engineering. You’ll develop a comprehensive knowledge of mechanics, materials, electrical and electronic systems and circuits. And you’ll explore the theory and practice of the latest mechanical and electrical technologies.

Being able to apply what you’ve learnt is an important part of your study at Bath. You’ll use theory in coordinated projects and laboratory work where you’ll design and develop products and systems.

Group and individual projects are a chance to explore creative approaches to engineering problems. You could design and build robotics, medical devices or sports and games equipment. You’ll also develop valuable skills to add to your technical and scientific knowledge. Through teamwork, problem-solving and management experience, you'll graduate prepared to work in professional engineering roles.

Studying an MEng degree gives you a more in-depth study experience through advanced taught units and semester-long individual and group project work. It also meets the educational requirements you need to become a Chartered Engineer.

We also offer this course with a placement year, giving you the opportunity to gain work experience as part of your degree.

Teaching

You’ll learn from academics with expertise in mechanical and electrical engineering across a wide range of areas. These include biomechanics, tomography, automotive engineering, and advanced sensors. Their international collaborations and research activities feed into undergraduate teaching and contribute to your learning experience.

Facilities

You’ll have access to facilities specially equipped for the application of electrical and mechanical engineering. We've designed our laboratories to be similar to industrial workspaces so you gain an insight into what it's like to work in a professional environment. These include laboratories for electric vehicles, robotics and autonomous systems design, rapid prototyping and a mechanical workshop.

Careers

We work with industrial partners to make sure our course content reflects the needs of engineering industries. When you graduate, you'll have the interdisciplinary skills needed across a wide range of engineering professions. You could go on to pursue successful careers in high-technology industries including electronics, power, automotive, robotics, aerospace or manufacturing. Some of our graduates continue their studies with us or at other universities for a career in academia or research.

Course structure

This course lasts 4 years. It starts in September 2019 and ends in 2023. Induction week starts on 23 September 2019.

Occasionally we make changes to our programmes in response to, for example, feedback from students, developments in research and the field of studies, and the requirements of accrediting bodies. You will be advised of any significant changes to the advertised programme, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Units

At Bath, our courses are made up of units of study. Compulsory units cover core concepts that you'll need to understand as part of your degree programme. Some of our courses also offer the opportunity for you to study optional units. These allow you to specialise in particular areas of knowledge that interest you.

As an undergraduate, you will be expected to take 60 credits (ECTS) in each academic year. These are usually split into 30 credits for each semester you study. Sixty credits are the equivalent of 1200 notional hours of study; this includes contact time with staff and your own independent learning.
