About this course

Mechanical engineering provides the analytical and design tools needed to understand, create and maintain the physical systems that make modern life possible, from transport and energy infrastructure to manufacturing equipment, medical devices and everyday products. At the University of Lincoln, this four-year full-time degree includes a science foundation year and a sandwich placement with work placement, and it was founded in collaboration with Siemens, giving the programme from its outset a strong connection to professional engineering practice and a commitment to preparing graduates who are both technically skilled and able to adapt to the changing demands of the engineering world. You will study the core mechanical engineering disciplines: statics and dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, materials science, manufacturing processes, design and control systems.
