Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Product Design Engineering University of East London - Docklands Campus, UK

This exciting new programme combines the knowledge of design principles, ergonomics, engineering science and manufacturing processes to create multi-functional solutions and products.

A career in product design engineering or industrial design will mean you conduct necessary tests to determine whether a product meets all the customer requirements.

By the time you graduate, you will be able to merge your knowledge of engineering reinforced design education and analytical skillset with a sound manufacturing base, enabling you to conceive and develop innovative designs and turn them into manufacturing reality, innovative products and solutions, and profitable businesses.

The programme will also offer to all students an optional placement year that will enable you to experience the real world and effectively connect your knowledge gained at UEL with it.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

The course will help you gain a solid understanding of the processes and practices of product design engineering or industrial design and help you realise the expectations that you'll have as a design engineer within an international workplace that's evolving at an ever-increasing pace.

Throughout the course, engagement with industry experts and real work experience will be embedded into the core elements of learning. In year one you will gain a solid grounding in manufacturing and engineering principles through the medium of lectures, workshops and laboratory experimentation.  As your knowledge increases in subsequent years, you will have the necessary tools to explore, experiment and find interesting solutions to complex problems.

By the time you graduate, you'll be generating highly complex design solutions. You'll be familiar with a variety of methods to produce models and prototypes, such as 3D CAD using high-end industry specification software, and model making in our traditional workshops and digital and fabrication facilities.

We consistently review our courses to ensure we are up to date with industry changes and requirements from our graduates. As a result, our modules are subject to change.
