Mechanical Engineering

About this course

Mechanical engineering is the branch of engineering concerned with the design, analysis, and operation of systems that involve forces, motion, energy, and materials. It is one of the broadest engineering disciplines, encompassing areas from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to manufacturing processes, materials science, and robotics. Mechanical engineers work on products and systems that range from microelectromechanical devices to large-scale industrial plant, and the discipline is central to virtually every sector of the economy, from aerospace and automotive to energy, healthcare, and consumer goods. At Sheffield Hallam University, this programme is offered on a part-time basis, which makes it particularly well suited to students who are already working in engineering or a related field and who want to develop their formal qualifications while remaining in employment.
