    Bachelor's degree

  • Location

    Guildford

  • Duration

    3 Years

Mechanical engineers work in areas such as robotics, automation, materials, stress analysis, fluid mechanics and mechanical design.

You’ll receive training on the latest industry-standard design and solid modelling software and computer-numerical-control (CNC) machining as well as sensors, actuators and advanced control systems which drive modern mechanical engineering products.

You may also choose to make the most of Surrey’s partnership with the National Physical Laboratory, or even explore the cross-disciplinary aspect of mechanical engineering, applying your skills in areas ranging from prosthetics to satellites.

You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng (Master of Engineering), which is a direct route to a masters qualification. Depending on your progress, you may have the option to switch to a BEng or MEng during your studies.
