About this course

General engineering is a broad discipline that gives you grounding across multiple branches of engineering, including mechanical, electrical, electronic, and civil, rather than committing you at the outset to a single specialism. This approach is increasingly valued by employers who need graduates capable of working across technical boundaries, understanding how different engineering systems interact, and communicating between specialist teams. It also gives you the flexibility to identify a specialism as you progress, based on where your interest and aptitude lead. Sheffield Hallam University's part-time General Engineering programme is designed for people who wish to develop engineering knowledge and qualification alongside professional experience. Studying part time allows you to remain in work while building your academic credentials, which means you can apply theoretical principles
