Description:

From prosthetic limbs to exploratory spacecraft, engineers design and build extraordinary machines, products and systems. But doing so often takes more than specialist expertise. In this general engineering degree, you’ll take a multidisciplinary approach and will personalise your course by choosing the areas that fascinate you most.

Unlike some other universities, Engineering at Leicester has always been viewed as a unified subject and all engineering research and teaching staff belong to a single School. This has significant advantages for our graduates who leave here familiar with a broad range of topics and techniques in electrical, electronic and mechanical engineering. While this is an advantage to all our courses it provides a special quality to our General Engineering degrees.
