MEng Mechanical Engineering

The MEng Mechanical Engineering course at Sheffield Hallam University is a four-year integrated master’s degree designed to give students an advanced and in-depth education in mechanical engineering. This program goes beyond the traditional bachelor’s level, combining core engineering knowledge with forward-thinking design and innovation skills. Whether you’re passionate about sustainable energy, robotics, or product design, this course will help you develop the expertise to tackle real-world engineering challenges across diverse industries.

Curriculum Structure
From the very beginning, the course provides a balance of theoretical learning and practical application. The foundation is built with core subjects such as mathematics, physics, materials science, and mechanics. As you progress, you'll explore modules in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, control systems, advanced manufacturing, and digital engineering. You’ll also take part in hands-on labs, work with industry-standard software, and contribute to group design projects that reflect current industry demands. In the final year, you’ll undertake a major individual project that allows you to research and solve a complex engineering problem—often aligned with real-world or industry-linked challenges.

Accreditation
The course is professionally accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), which ensures it meets the high standards required for a future Chartered Engineer (CEng) pathway. This accreditation demonstrates the course’s quality and its relevance to current and emerging industry needs.

Campus Location
Sheffield Hallam is based in the vibrant city of Sheffield, a recognized hub for innovation and manufacturing in the UK. The university offers access to specialist engineering laboratories, 3D printing suites, CAD facilities, and testing equipment, all located within a purpose-built, modern engineering department.
