FIND OUT MORE... www.manchester.ac.uk/mace ug-mace@manchester.ac.uk t +44 (0)161 306 9210 One of the pioneers in engineering education and research, the Mechanics Institute – the forerunner to The University of Manchester – was founded by Sir William Fairbairn in 1824. The term ‘Reynolds Number’ recognises the fundamental work in fluid flow that was undertaken by our first professor, Osborne Reynolds (appointed in 1868). Today, all our engineering degrees have a strong base of engineering science, while giving you a good practical grounding and knowledge of the environment you will work in as a professional engineer. Because our staff are actively involved in research, our teaching evolves to reflect state-of-the-art technology, giving you access to expertise in a wide range of engineering disciplines.

We provide excellent student support, including an extensive tutorial system for academic support and pastoral care, student-to-student mentoring, a dedicated undergraduate office, and approachable, well-qualified and co-operative staff.
PROFESSIONAL ACCREDITATION All our Mechanical Engineering Honours degrees are professionally accredited by the relevant bodies. For full details, see www.manchester.ac.uk/mace/ undergraduate/accreditation.
WHAT YOU STUDY All courses contain the same core mechanical engineering subjects. Our MEng courses offer you the opportunity to develop specialised understanding and skills in the area of your interest.
Mechanical Engineering Years 1 and 2: Learn basic engineering knowledge and skills covering a broad base of mechanical engineering. Subjects will include mechanics, structures, dynamics, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, as well as materials, manufacturing, design, modelling and simulation, mathematics, and management. A combination of classroombased teaching and practical laboratory and computer sessions help to develop the range of skills you will need in a successful engineering career.
