Manufacturing engineers develop products, as well as the machines that create them. Mechanical and manufacturing engineers apply scientific and engineering knowledge to the development, manufacture and distribution of all types of products. They research, design, build, test, maintain and improve almost everything, from power plants and renewable energy systems to robots and cars.

In this degree, you’ll learn how to transform a design from a conceptual stage into a prototype and finally into a commercially viable product. You’ll integrate the knowledge gained from this degree into a framework and process that allows you to implement your designs, solutions and ideas in a commercial environment.

The final year courses are based on global industry best practice in manufacturing and industrial engineering. You’ll study across the following subjects:

• Strategy and management
• Operations and supply chains
• Analysis and decision-making
• Design of product-process systems
• Technology and automation
