Overview

Mechanical Engineering with a Year in Industry is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Mechanical Engineering is offered as a three year BEng or a four year MEng at most departments, and the MEng is the route that meets the full academic requirement for chartership. We currently work with 5 universities on this course across 5 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £22,200 to £29,300 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
