Design, manufacture, and innovate physical systems
Online or on campus
Mechanical Engineering combines theory with workshop practice on campus. You will study statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, materials science, and computer-aided design. Projects include designing functional prototypes using 3D printing and CNC equipment in the Engineering Workshop. Sustainability and energy efficiency are emphasised throughout the curriculum. BSc (Hons) Mechanical Engineering is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 3 years full-time, and the credit total is 360. Students move from Engineering Mathematics I through Engineering Mathematics I; Engineering Statics & Dynamics; Materials Science & Engineering Properties; Engineering Design, CAD & Drawing; Electrical & Electronic Principles; Computing & Numerical Methods for Engineers, and finish on Honours Engineering Design Project & Dissertation. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students draw the system, name the constraint that binds it, and compare two responses. Reading is a system description, an indicator note, and a project option paper. The artefact a marker expects is a recommendation for one decision, with the evidence and the downside. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Model mechanical systems using engineering mathematics Produce CAD drawings and specifications for manufacture Test materials and analyse structural performance Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. This course does not confer a professional engineering licence. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
Final-year teams compete in the Haverton Design Challenge judged by industry engineers.

| ENG305 | Honours Engineering Design Project & Dissertation Honours Engineering Design Project & Dissertation (ENG305) is a course on BSc (Hons) Mechanical Engineering. It carries 30 credits and 300 notional learning hours, at 10 hours per credit. The course is taught at bachelor's level. Students learn the method on a guided case, then use it on a longer task with the sources named in the chapters. The chapters are the syllabus. Each chapter is a class of work this course assesses. Preparation is the reading, dataset, or case for that chapter. Seminar time is spent on the decision, the calculation, or the draft. The student revises after feedback. A pass requires the method named in the chapters, evidence a marker can check, and a stated limit on what the result does not show. Haverton University teaches this course on the published route for this degree. This course does not confer a professional engineering licence.

Modules are assessed through a published mix of coursework, applied projects, and examinations. Exam windows are announced in advance so students in other time zones are not forced into overnight sittings. Alternative arrangements are available where documented.
The published duration is 3 years full-time. Teaching language: English. Actual time-to-complete depends on mode and any recognised prior learning.
You may study this award fully online from your country, or — where published — on campus at Haverton. Online study does not require a student visa. Campus study may.
Degree tuition for this award is published as £0 / tuition-free on the online pathway. All online degree examinations and certificates are 100% free and sponsored — the only cost for online study is the application fee. Campus tuition and campus examinations are charged separately. Check the Fees page for details.
Requirements are grouped on this page (academic, English, documents). Equivalent qualifications are considered. English may be waived after prior English-medium study.
Assessment is typically a mix of coursework, projects, and examinations. Doctoral awards include a thesis or dissertation and an oral examination. Details sit in the programme specification and module outlines.
Recognition of the award for local employment, professional licence, or ministry attestation is decided by your employer or regulator. Haverton University publishes verification pages for certificates. We do not claim automatic equivalence in every country.
