Sustainable Design Engineering

About this course

Sustainable design engineering is a discipline at the forefront of one of the most important challenges facing the engineering profession: how to design and build the products, systems, and infrastructure that people need while drastically reducing their environmental impact. Sustainability is no longer an add-on consideration in engineering; it is a core design constraint, driven by climate targets, resource scarcity, regulatory pressure, and consumer demand. Engineers who can integrate sustainable thinking into every stage of the design process are in growing demand across industry. At the University of Sunderland, you will be introduced to a range of engineering systems and concepts, prepared to work in the modern world of engineering and to develop a deeper understanding of the discipline through a sustainability lens. The programme runs for three years full time, with a sandwich ye
