MEng Product Design Engineering at University of Glasgow

Product Design Engineering is delivered jointly by the University of Glasgow and The Glasgow School of Art and integrates engineering with design. Students work closely with industry, with potential internship and employment opportunities and field trips to industrial centres of excellence. The MEng adds a fifth year of individual product development, advanced manufacture, human factors and robotics.

Duration: 5 years full-time  |  Intake: September  |  Study mode: integrated masters  |  Location: Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom

What you will study

The first three years are shared by BEng and MEng students: Year 1 covers Analogue Electronics, Engineering Skills, Materials, Dynamics, Engineering Mathematics, Statics, Thermodynamics and Product Design Engineering (at the Glasgow School of Art); Year 2 adds Design and Manufacture, Fluid Mechanics and Mechanics of Structures; Year 3 covers Control, Heat Transfer, Simulation of Engineering Systems and Mechanics of Solids, then individual product development and advanced engineering subjects.

Career pathways

Example graduate roles include design engineer, mechanical design engineer, creative packaging designer, emerging technology engineer and product lifecycle management engineer. Graduate Outcomes data for this subject area (2023-24 graduates, 15 months later) shows 100% in work or further study.
