Course summary
The BEng Mechanical Engineering with Management will give you an excellent grounding in the knowledge and experience of the most fundamental of all engineering disciplines, preparing you for a variety of careers in engineering, technology, business and management.
You will learn that engineering is not just about technology. It is about people, companies, manufacturing and commerce.
Engineering decisions must normally be made within a commercial context and engineers are often found in senior management positions where they are required to be leaders and strategic planners, as well as problem-solvers and designers.
Combining engineering with management, you will study a lively, interesting and multidisciplinary degree, with excellent career prospects for graduates.
You will emerge from this degree as a well-rounded graduate with not only a solid engineering training, but also a useful insight into the commercial world. This will equip you for a wide range of careers, including general management and sales, as well as jobs in more technical fields.
As in Mechanical Engineering BEng, in addition to core and optional units in the third year, you will also undertake a major individual research project.

Entry requirements
UCAS Tariff Not accepted
A level A*A*A
A*A*A in Mathematics, Physics and one other subject.
Typical Contextual Offer: A*AA in Mathematics, Physics and one other subject.
Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016) D*DD
We consider the National Extended Diploma for entry provided it is in a relevant subject. We require grades D*DD plus A-level Mathematics at grade A*
Access to HE Diploma D: 45 credits
Given that it is not possible to meet our published offer conditions within an Access course, we would not recommend an Access course as the best way of preparing for our courses. However, we would look very carefully at any applications from exceptional Access students who were on track to gain the AAA equivalent (45 credits at level 3 awarded at distinction). We would treat any such exceptional students on a case-by-case basis, looking very carefully at past academic history and the academic reference. A decision would be made about entry holistically on the basis of all information (including details of the course undertaken) and would usually be conditional on the above standard.

Contextual admissions
Universities and colleges consider more than grades when assessing applications and may make offers based on a range of criteria. Learn more about contextual offers.
We operate contextual admissions meaning many applicants receive an offer and are admitted at least one grade below standard entry requirements. Entry requirements for applicants meeting contextual admissions criteria are listed next to the standard entry requirements on course profiles.
Contextual admissions means we consider your application in context helping us to ensure everyone has a fair chance of getting into Manchester. The data we use is automatically provided on your UCAS form.
