About this programme
There is a strong industrial demand for skilled engineers capable of spanning mechanical and electrical engineering disciplines.This degree gives you the broad knowledge and fundamental tools to satisfy this demand in a unique way focussing on electro-mechanical energy conversion, with a view to the effective and informed design of systems that interchange and manage electrical and mechanical energy.During this course, you will study units from the mechanical and electrical disciplines along the following themes:design and integration of electro-mechanical systemsenergy conversion and actuation systemsembedded systems and controlpower electronics and electric drivesenergy management.Years one and two offer a grounding in mathematics, thermal management, dynamics and control, computing, electrical energy technologies, and analogue and digital electronics. Laboratory work and case studies will draw together these interdisciplinary foundations.In year three, in addition to classroom-based subjects, you'll engage in a themed project. You'll work closely with a team of peers and an academic project supervisor to focus on a specific topic area. This will give you the freedom to apply the knowledge and skills that you have developed. Topics might include actuation and sensor systems; intelligent, adaptable power systems; or efficient, clean propulsion technologies.Mechanical and Electrical Engineering graduates will be equipped to innovate in a range of technological areas. These might include:the power flow of renewable energy microgridsactuation systems for motion control or roboticsthe complete power train of future electric vehicles.
