Robert Gordon University, United Kingdom
Apply mechanical engineering to the challenging world of offshore and energy systems. Combining mechanical engineering with specialist study of offshore structures, hydrodynamics, drilling and production, this course prepares you to design, analyse and support engineering systems operating in some of the world's most demanding environments. Develop strong mechanical engineering foundations before progressing to specialist offshore applications, including offshore hydrodynamics and structural loading, drilling, well completion and production engineering.
Faculty: School of Computing, Engineering and Technology | Duration: 4 years full-time | Study mode: full-time | Intake: September | Location: Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom
Stage 1 is common across all engineering degrees and provides a strong foundation in core engineering principles. You will develop essential skills in mathematics, physics, programming, and electrical and mechanical systems. Through hands-on labs and team-based projects, you will begin to apply theory to practice while building confidence in problem-solving, communication, and design, laying the groundwork for more specialised study in renewable energy engineering in later stages.
Graduates of BEng (Hons) Mechanical and Offshore Engineering are highly sought after across the global energy and offshore engineering sectors. The course prepares you for careers in offshore oil and gas, offshore wind, subsea engineering, marine engineering and wider energy industries, as well as roles in manufacturing, automation and emerging low-carbon technologies.
