This is Engineering
Building solutions to global problems
Engineering is an exciting multidisciplinary field offering outstanding graduate prospects. The world we live in has been designed by engineers and they’ll be at the forefront of creating a sustainable world for the future.
Here at Bradford, we emphasise the skills needed to work in engineering by providing excellent opportunities to do practical work in small groups. Our multidisciplinary first year helps students develop knowledge about other engineering disciplines.
We offer six engineering disciplines:
- Architectural - combining the art of design and construction
- Biomedical - using technology to develop medicine and healthcare
- Chemical - large-scale chemical and biochemical processes in which materials undergo change
- Civil and Structural - the conception, design, construction and maintenance of the built environment
- Mechanical - the broadest of all the engineering disciplines combining design, materials science and computational methods
- Software - at the heart of modern technology, playing a key role in industries such as mathematics, computer science and cyber security
National Student Survey feedback from our engineering students is outstanding; for example our BEng and MEng Chemical Engineering (with Placement) courses received 100% overall student satisfaction in the National Student Survey 2021.
