About this course

Mechanical Engineering is one of the broadest and most fundamental engineering disciplines, concerned with the design, analysis, manufacture and maintenance of mechanical systems across virtually every sector of the economy. It draws on mathematics, physics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, materials science and manufacturing to tackle problems that range from miniature biomedical devices to large-scale power generation systems. Mechanical engineers are central to the development of sustainable technologies, from renewable energy systems and electric vehicles to lightweight materials and efficient manufacturing processes. At Queen's University Belfast this five-year full-time programme leads to an integrated Masters degree, with a sandwich year built into the structure to give you substantial professional experience in an engineering environment during your degree.
