Course summary

Learn how engineering, manufacture and management work together to find product solutions in industry. Explore the creation process from design to end product.

Learn how engineering, manufacture and management work together to find product solutions in industry. Explore the creation process from design to end product.

Our course develops your understanding of the sciences and disciplines relating to manufacturing. You’ll study engineering, manufacturing and management to understand their role in production processes.

We draw on our links with industry to build your knowledge of the integrated systems, processes and technologies used in advanced manufacturing. Learning about the latest engineering developments will inspire you to explore low-carbon and sustainable ways to produce high-quality products.

In your final year, you'll work on a semester-long, full-time individual project, where you'll take imaginative approaches to solve complex engineering problems. You could explore new business or engineering technologies in areas such as aerospace, automotive, sports equipment, medical devices, or data management.

Shape your degree experience
You don't need to worry if you haven't made your mind up about whether to study a BEng or MEng yet. Once you're here at Bath, you'll have until the end of your second year to move between any of our BEng and MEng courses.
