Overview

hp-01-tab

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, a cyber physical age, will be realised over the next 20 years. This course will equip you with the skills and knowledge to be at the forefront of these exciting developments and is delivered in partnership with WMG (Warwick Manufacturing Group)Link opens in a new window, renowned worldwide for its innovative links between academia and industry.

All Engineering students at Warwick develop an in-depth understanding of the classical principles of engineering by following a general engineering programme at the start of their time with us. Thereafter, those specialising in Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering will learn and develop state-of-the-art techniques and methodologies that graduates will find directly applicable in industry.

You'll master modern technologies and skills such as robotics, lifecycle analysis, computer-aided design and simulation. We'll offer you a rich curriculum and resources to achieve this, and will give you a significant understanding of management techniques and skills alongside those technical subjects to give you the confidence to innovate and lead in a globally sustainable economy.

In your third year you will be able to apply your skills to an individual project such as rapid prototyping, robot design or processing of novel materials. Those who choose the MEng degree will complete a group project in the fourth year, for example designing and building a human-powered submarine or a robot to rescue victims from a collapsed building.

  • BEng Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering (HH73)
  • MEng Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering (HH37)
  • Engineering students at Warwick develop an in-depth understanding of the fundamental principles of engineering by following a general engineering programme at the start of their time with us. Thereafter, those specialising in Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering will learn and develop state-of-the-art techniques and methodologies that graduates will find directly applicable in industry.

If you aspire to achieve Chartered Engineer (CEng) status, a degree from Warwick is a great starting point. The majority of our degrees are accredited by licensed professional engineering institutions, such as the IET, IMechE and JBM and provide the academic component (in part or fully) needed for Chartered Engineer status.

Course structure

hp-04-tab

We offer flexible degree programmes that enable you to experience a range of engineering disciplines before you decide to specialise.

All first year students study a general engineering programme, which is much favoured by industry. After the first year, you can specialise in Manufacturing & Mechanical Engineering, choose another specialism or continue on the general engineering pathway.

Students can also switch from the three-year BEng to the four-year MEng degree if academic requirements and regulations are met, and from the MEng to the BEng if they prefer to graduate earlier.

The course structure below is relevant to students applying for entry in 2024.

Incoming students: Please do not use the modules listed below in your ATAS application. You will need to use the information provided to you by the Undergraduate Admissions Office. Please contact them if you have any queries.
