Electrical and Mechanical Engineering - BEng (Hons)

The University of Edinburgh

Electromechanical engineers work on everything from energy generation and hybrid vehicles to aircraft design and satellite technology. They are creative problem-solvers and are skilled at working in interdisciplinary teams to deal with society's ever more complex challenges.Here at Edinburgh, we have particular specialisms in:* carbon capture* materials science and engineering* engineering at the interface of biology and medicine* renewable energy, including marine energy**Electronics and electrical engineering**Electronics and electrical engineers pioneer change in the modern technologies that underpin our world. They create more powerful, efficient and universal products, systems and materials, from the nano to the macro scale, addressing the future needs of societies locally and across the globe.**Mechanical engineering**Mechanical engineers turn ideas into realities, by creating systems and machines, generating movement and power. They lead technological advancements across diverse industries, instigating more efficient, safe and affordable designs and pushing the boundaries of modern manufacturing and automation.**Ties to industry**Our Industrial Liaison Boards include senior representatives from prominent engineering companies. This has, and continues to, influence our curriculum and programme development.**Programme benefits*** Make use of an enviable suite of facilities including specialist laboratories, student makerspaces and cutting-edge industry-standard equipment.* You will benefit from research-led teaching by internationally leading academics.* We have strong links to industry with excellent career prospects, industry relevant curriculum and internships.* Benefit from a balanced curriculum covering theoretical and practical skills and individual and group work.
