MEng / BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering & Design

Program Overview

MEng / BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering & Design

Overview

The MEng / BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering & Design programme is a five-year undergraduate course that leads to an integrated Master's degree. It is validated by the University of Derby, a TOP20 UK University in Mechanical Engineering.

Description

The programme aims to provide students with a solid academic background in Mechanical Engineering and equip them with practical skills in mechanical engineering design, modelling, and management.

Admissions

The minimum English language requirement for the bilingual course (Greek and English) is equivalent to IELTS 4.5 (B1), and for the English-taught course is equivalent to IELTS 6.0 (B2). If you do not possess an official English language certificate, you can sit the College's internal placement test.

Moreover, you'll be asked to submit a reference letter from a tutor, and you'll be called for an academic interview with the programme leader.

If you are a general high school graduate from a technology study route and high marks or an IEK diploma holder in Mechanics, you are eligible to apply for direct entry to the 2nd year of study. If you are an HND graduate or a University student or graduate in a relevant discipline, you may be granted advanced entry, through recognition of prior learning.
