    University of Central Lancashire

    The University of Central Lancashire – UCLan – was founded in nearly 200 years ago in 1828. At that time it as the Institution of the Diffusion of Knowledge, in Preston. Its expansion began with an endowment in 1877, becoming a centre for art and science in the region. It became the Harris Art College […]

    Course Summary

    The University of Central Lancashire’s combined MEng / BEng program was designed to give students the best possible approach t engineering, especially in terms of organisation, manufacture and design. It is intended to make the more than just technically competent, but also responsible, consistent and socially aware.

    The program is also set up to give you all of the skills you’ll need to work your way towards sought-after Chartered Engineer status. It has special emphasis on preparing you for a role in the Motor Sports industry, and complies with all Engineering Council Institution requirements.

    You’ll learn using the latest computer aided engineering and design tools, and the techniques you’ll need to take your place in the manufacturing industry. You’ll also develop your problem solving an system analysis skills. In your final year you’ll engage in several projects designed to test your new-learned skills in real world situations.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.

    This program is typically delivered over four years at full time. If necessary, you can take a foundation year. A year in industrial placement is also available. Either option will make this a 5 year program.

    Year 1 Modules Include:

    • Engineering Analysis
    • Engineering Applications
    • Engineering Design
    • Engineering Science

    Year 2 Modules Include:

    • Design and Manufacture
    • Further Engineering Mathematics and Simulation
    • Instrumentation & Control
    • Operations Management A
    • Software Development 2

    Year 3 Modules Include:

    • A major project
    • Advanced CAD
    • Control Systems
    • Engineering Simulation
    • Manufacturing Simulation
    • Operations Management B

    Year 4 Modules Include:

    • Engineer in Society
    • Case Studies in Engineering
    • Advanced Tribology
    • Advanced Engineering Systems
    • A major project (double)

    A year in industrial placement is optional. This is highly advisable, though, as it will give you important real world experience within your chosen specialty and allow you to start forming a professional network while most other students are still in their classes.

Each module is comprised of time spent in lecture classes, smaller seminars, tutorial and skills sessions as well as much independent reading and laboratory/workshop sessions.

    Career Possiblities

    The University of Central Lancashire’s MEng degree in Computer Aided Engineering is highly focused on improving your career potential within the Motor Sports industry. It is fully accredited towards Chartered Engineer status by both the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Institution of Engineering Designers. However, there are many other career and academic pathways open to MEng graduates, and the university’s Transitions Lead will be happy to help you explore them.
