What is BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering with Foundation Year?
BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering with Foundation Year is a four-year undergraduate degree designed for students who do not meet the standard entry requirements for the traditional BEng Mechanical Engineering degree. The foundation year builds essential knowledge in mathematics, physics, and engineering principles to prepare students for the full BEng program.
Who should study this course?
This course is ideal for students who have a keen interest in engineering, mechanics, design, and manufacturing but do not have the qualifications required for direct entry into a BEng Mechanical Engineering program. It is also suitable for mature students returning to education.
What is covered in the Foundation Year?
1. Mathematics for Engineering
2. Fundamentals of Physics and Mechanics
3. Introduction to Engineering Design
4. Study and Research Skills for Engineers
5. Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Basics
What are the key topics covered in the BEng Mechanical Engineering program after the Foundation Year?
1. Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics
2. Engineering Mathematics and Modelling
3. Materials Science and Manufacturing Processes
4. Structural Analysis and Mechanics
5. Robotics and Automation
6. Mechatronics and Control Systems
7. Computer-Aided Design and Simulation
8. Renewable Energy and Sustainable Engineering
