They work across all industrial sectors, developing and manufacturing well-designed products through efficient manufacturing processes.
This four-year MEng Mechanical Engineering programme offers you a quicker, more direct route to Chartered Engineer status than the BEng. It allows you to use the last two years of the course to expand and strengthen your knowledge in mechanical engineering.
You will benefit from advanced learning in design and management and an appreciation of the techniques needed to manage and organise a multidisciplinary engineering design project.
An added advantage of this MEng Mechanical Engineering (International) course is that one semester is spent studying engineering through the medium of English in a partner university overseas. They include universities in countries such as France, Germany, Italy, the USA, Australia, Canada and more.

Zoe, Biosciences, UK, 2021
Cardiff really is surrounded by some scenic gems. It’s in the middle of everything and is so well connected with transport links that you can get pretty much everywhere and anywhere you want.
Ellie, Journalism, UK, 2020
I chose Cardiff because it felt right. It was the first open day I attended and even on that first visit I just really liked the feel of the city, with it already feeling like home.

People are super friendly, and the city is affordable for students . . . There are also plenty of coffee shops and restaurants that you can hang out with your friends.
