The Student Finance service provides student loans to help pay for tuition fees and the cost of living, depending on your circumstances.
You'll be charged interest on your loan as soon as you take it out, but you only start repayments once you earn more than a certain amount - currently £21,000.
Repayments are based on how much you earn, not how much you've borrowed.
About Mechanical Engineering, BEng (Hons) - at The University of Bradford
Mechanical Engineering is the most versatile of the engineering disciplines and there exists a high and growing demand from industry for graduate Mechanical Engineers.
Our accredited degree will place you at the heart of modern industry, providing career opportunities in sectors such as:
Aerospace, automotive and rail
Energy and power generation
Manufacturing engineering; product design, materials, production and processing.
You’ll combine mechanics, materials science, thermofluids and computational methods to design, analyse and implement complex systems which are economic, reliable, efficient and sustainable.
Throughout the degree you’ll put theory into practice through a range of individual and group projects. For instance, year 1 will see you take part in three projects using your skills to design, build and test real mechanical devices.
A 'sandwich' placement year in industry enables you to build industry contacts while developing your skills and professional confidence.
On graduation you will be industry ready, with a grounding in engineering science and hands-on working knowledge of:
The core analytical and advanced scientific principles and methods underpinning mechanical engineering
Applied prototyping and analysis for efficient computer-aided design and manufacturing;
Integrated skills for complex engineered systems, including communication and project management skills, as well as advanced model based systems analysis tools and techniques.
We encourage and support all our students towards a seamless transfer to our MEng programme at the end of either the first or second year. The MEng programme comprises an extra fourth academic year that combines in-depth study with the integrative skills expected by industry, and provides the formal educational requirements for CEng registration.
