By choosing to study Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough, you will gain a thorough understanding in how things work, why things work, how long they will work for, when they will fail and how to make them work for longer and better.

You will develop skills in CAD, control, dynamics, heat transfer, mechanics, statics, thermodynamics, and more, all leading you to an ability to design and understand behaviour of mechanical products and technologies. This will allow you to specialise in technical streams within small and large companies, or develop a technical management career in national and multi-national companies.

Upon successful completion of this course, you will have acquired a good understanding of the engineering science and engineering design skills necessary to effectively develop new mechanically based products. The courses provide an excellent foundation for graduates wishing to progress to professional engineering status.

Securing a placement at Hawk-Eye Innovations was my greatest achievement. As a Systems Operator in the cricket department, I travelled globally, operating technology during games to assist umpires with decision-making.

I loved how the course was hands-on, balancing theoretical and practical work. It gave me the chance to build physical products that applied the engineering theory, especially in my final year.
