About Mechanical Engineering in Newcastle University

Mechanical engineers are responsible for the design and manufacture of the majority of products around us.

Creating products that are smarter, cheaper and more environmentally friendly is a key challenge for modern mechanical engineers.

Our professionally accredited Mechanical Engineering BEng Honours degree equips you with knowledge and skills across a wide range of mechanical engineering topics.

In practice, many engineers develop into senior managers, so it is helpful to have an overview of the full spectrum of engineering activities.

This degree maintains a broad range of topics at each Stage to allow you to keep your career options flexible.

We work closely with industry to ensure your training addresses real-world challenges.

All of our Mechanical Engineering students study the same broad programme for the first two years covering:

• mechanical, electrical and materials engineering sciences (50%)
• engineering design and manufacturing (20%)
• engineering mathematics (18%)
• management and professional skills, such as computing and enterprise (12%)

You will complete a number of design projects throughout your degree, designed to enhance your practical experience and industry knowledge:

• small team projects based in local industry, working with leading engineering companies
• an extended piece of work to develop your professional project planning and data analysis skills
• a major industry-relevant project at Stage 3 (BEng and MEng) and Stage 4 (MEng only), to solve real-world engineering problems and to showcase your professional-level skills

Typically we recognise a 75% average in Standard XII as comparable to ABB at A level.

This can be awarded by:

• Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE)
• Council for the Indian School Certificate (CISCE)
