Delivered in partnership with Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG), the course benefits from strong links with industry and collaboration with Warwick Business School (WBS), alongside the technical expertise of the School of Engineering. Students spend their first year studying fundamental engineering concepts before specialising in engineering business topics, including operations, supply chain, project management, marketing, and finance.

Graduates are equipped to pursue careers across consultancy, engineering services, operations and management roles in global companies. You'll develop the skills to contribute to innovation, efficiency, and growth, making a real impact in a wide range of industries.

Engineering (General)(BEng/MEng)

Build a strong foundation across multiple engineering disciplines.

UCAS code: H100 (BEng) / H102 (MEng)

Duration: BEng 3 years full time / MEng 4 years full time

Accrediting institutions: IET, IMechE, InstMC

Many engineering challenges span multiple disciplines, from energy and transport systems to advanced technologies and large-scale infrastructure. Our General Engineering pathway is designed for students who want to develop broad technical knowledge and the ability to connect ideas across different areas of engineering.

As with all of our degrees, you will decide whether to stay on this general pathway or switch to another engineering course from second year onwards. Those choosing to stay on the more general pathway will explore different areas while building a personalised degree and developing strong multidisciplinary problem-solving, project management and communication skills.

Interdisciplinary projects may include search and rescue robots, carbon-free homes, waste treatment systems and nano-satellites, helping you apply knowledge from different engineering fields to real-world problems.

You will graduate well prepared for roles in multidisciplinary teams, where engineers work across mechanical, electrical and civil systems to design and deliver complex solutions.

Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering (BEng/MEng)

Develop expertise in manufacturing processes and mechanical design.

UCAS code: HH73 (BEng) / HH37 (MEng)

Duration: BEng 3 years full time / MEng 4 years full time
