BEng Mechanical Engineering (Building Services) Canterbury Christ Church University

Program Description

Building service engineers play a critical role in the on- and off-site construction process and also in designing new systems and techniques that are driving the industry. Our degree enables you to not only interact with businesses involved in building services, but also with peers from other sectors to solve real-life problems using the innovative CDIO approach. We also ensure that there is considerable focus on your employability, and actively encourage work placements with the likes of EDF, Delphi and Southeast Water to help you on your path into the industry. You will use the pioneering CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) approach to problem solve engineering issues. The CDIO approach is an international engineering education model, developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It allows you to learn in a practical, hands-on way to find creative, evaluated solutions to industry related engineering challenges. We are one of the only handful of universities in the UK to offer CDIO. On completion of the course you'll be skilled in professional engineering practice and prepared to work as an effective, industry-ready engineer who is on track to become a Chartered Engineer.
