Mechanical Engineering

About this course

Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest and most versatile of the engineering disciplines, concerned with the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It encompasses everything from fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to machine design, materials, robotics, and manufacturing processes. Mechanical engineers work at the heart of industries that drive the economy, including energy, transport, aerospace, defence, consumer products, and the increasingly important fields of automation and sustainable engineering. At the University of Bradford, this three-year full-time Mechanical Engineering degree includes a foundation year, which provides a supported and structured entry into the programme for students who need additional preparation in mathematics or physics before engaging with the main engineering degree. The foundation year builds the quantitative and
