Mechanical Engineering BEng (Dubai)

All modules listed are compulsory.

The first two years of our BEng mechanical engineering course have been designed to provide a contemporary and flexible educational model that builds upon essential engineering fundamentals to develop students’ broader understanding of behaviour, policy, entrepreneurship, and global perspectives and kindles the passion necessary to address the societal challenge agenda.

If you are interested in studying in the UK, you can apply to spend the second year of your course in Birmingham. Find out more about spending your second year in the UK.

• Electrical Engineering 1 (20 credits)
• Engineering Materials (10 credits)
• Engineering Mathematics 1 (20 credits)
• Fluid Mechanics and Energy Transfer (20 credits)
• Integrated Design Project 1 (20 credits)
• Computing for Engineers (10 credits)

In the final year these fundamentals of engineering are used to explore advanced engineering topic areas, with a more problem solving based focus, within the context of a broadly based programme of study. In your final year you undertake a major individual project linked to your chosen field of specialisation. You will also undertake a group design study project exploring the associated commercial, legal and safety aspects of developing a new product.

• Mechanical Design B (20 credits)
• Powertrain and Vehicle Engineering (20 credits)
• Integrated Design Project 3 (20 credits)
• Sustainable Energy and the Environment (10 credits)
• Computational Fluid Dynamics and Finite Element Analysis (20 credits)
• BEng: Individual Engineering Project (30 credits)
