About this course

Mechanical and electrical engineering together cover the physical and power-based foundations of nearly every manufactured system in the modern world, from motors, generators, and power distribution networks to the mechanisms, structures, and thermal systems that underpin industrial and consumer technology. Engineers who are competent in both mechanical and electrical domains are exceptionally versatile, able to work at the interface between systems in ways that specialists in one field alone cannot. At Cardiff University this four-year full-time programme includes a year in industry as an integral part of the degree. The year in industry is a full year of professional engineering work in a company, giving you the kind of sustained, practical experience that cannot be replicated in a university setting alone. You will apply the technical skills you have developed, encounter real enginee
