Program Overview

Introduction to Mechanical Engineering with Business Finance MEng

The Mechanical Engineering with Business Finance MEng is a four-year integrated master's program that combines mechanical engineering with business, accountancy, and project management. This interdisciplinary program aims to equip students with the engineering capabilities and business expertise needed to plan and deliver major engineering projects.


Program Overview

The program is co-delivered by UCL Mechanical Engineering and the UCL School of Management. It allows students to integrate extensive mechanical engineering expertise with finance and project management skills, making them ideally positioned to provide strategic support and take managerial responsibility across many types of engineering projects.


Entry Requirements

  • A levels: Grades AAA, with Mathematics and Physics required. A must be in one of the required subjects. Design and Technology, Engineering, Economics, Geography, Chemistry, and Biology are preferred as a third subject, but not essential.
  • GCSEs: English Language and Mathematics at grade C or 4, plus Physics at grade C or 4 if not offered at A level.
  • IB Diploma: 39 points, with a total of 19 points in three higher-level subjects, including Mathematics and Physics, with no higher-level score below 5. Higher Level 7, 6 required in Mathematics and Physics in any order.
  • Contextual offer: AAB, with Mathematics and Physics required. A must be in one of the required subjects. Further Mathematics is acceptable in lieu of Physics. Economics is preferred as a third subject, but not essential.
