MEng Mechanical Engineering with Robotics

The Master of Engineering (MEng) degree lets you specialise your degree with a range of options and provides you with the educational requirements needed to become a Chartered Engineer. On this course, you have the opportunity to develop specific expertise in robotics alongside skills in mechanical engineering; making you employable by various sectors, from robot design and development to autonomous cars, robotics, automation, mechatronics, automotive, aerospace and renewable energies.

Our world-class research in robotics, dynamics and control, space systems, sensors, and flexible electronics informs our degrees to give you the best start in your career. You’ll study in our Future Technologies Labs, which provides a new space for building robots, and programming embedded systems, as well as state-of-the-art computer design and modelling suites. In particular, you will have access to our flexible manufacturing system, industrial robotic manipulator, humanoid robots, fleet of drones, autonomous vehicles, and a real-time motion monitoring system.

We have dedicated academic advisers to support you during you time at Sussex, as well as a team of student mentors.

Accreditation

This course is currently unaccredited, however, we are seeking accreditation from the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) to meet in full the academic requirement for Chartered Engineer registration from the 2019 intake up to, and including, the 2023 intake, with backdating for the cohort intakes of 2017 and 2018.

• Accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Find out more
