Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: HH37
Here's what Ulster University says about its Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering course.
There is no product that exists in the world that has not been engineered – from the smallest computer chips using nanotechnology to the biggest structures, such as bridges and the world’s tallest buildings. All engineering comes down to one thing and that is the need to solve a problem – how can I make it better? How can I make it more useful? Mechanical and Manufacturing engineering concentrates on the design and manufacture of machines, from the smallest parts to large systems, covering industries as diverse as automotive, aerospace and medical. So if you have ever wondered how you can make an F1 racing car go faster or how we can design and build the next generation of space exploration, then mechanical and manufacturing engineering is for you.

Ulster University open days
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
