Introduction
- The 1st to be offered in Greek private higher education.
- No1 in Greece | Top 20 in the UK.
- Leads to an integrated Master’s degree.
- Worldwide professional recognition.
The School of Engineering at Mediterranean College was established in 2005 and was the first to ever offer a Mechanical Engineering degree in Greek private higher education. The MEng/ BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering & Design is validated by the University of Derby, a TOP20 UK University in Mechanical Engineering, according to the Guardian University Guide, 2019. Derby is a city of technology, with world-famous companies including Rolls-Royce, Bombardier and Toyota right on the University’s doorstep.
This is a five-year undergraduate programme with an integrated Master’s, which can lead to a charted engineer status, according to the requirements of the UK Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and to full professional recognition in Greece.
What you will study
Our aim is to provide you with a solid academic background in Mechanical Engineering and also equip you with practical skills in mechanical engineering design, modelling and management. We have adjusted the programme’s content, to ensure that you are taught what you’ll be asked to apply as a professional in Greece and abroad.
Our course is designed to cover the three, key mechanical engineering study fields: Energy, Construction, and Industrial Management. You learn how to design and model, using contemporary software tools, such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Abacus/ Ansys, MATLAB. Also, your focus on management enables you to develop entrepreneurial activity and pursue higher managerial positions in the technical sector.
You have access to high-end labs and facilities, strengthening your practical skills: Metrology, CAD Design & Prototyping, Metal Processing, Technology & Strength of Materials, and Fluid Engineering. Our specialised academic staff and collaborating business partners keep you up to date with the latest industry developments and scientific research.
