We provide Engineering education, research and industry solutions, through a wide range of courses that benefit from active engagement with regional, national and international industry – giving students the best possible introduction to modern engineering and learning as we teach engineering by doing engineering.
Engineering students are based at our Millennium Point building in Birmingham city centre, where our facilities have undergone a £6.5 million investment including a maker area, engineering labs and IT equipment to provide you with the very best learning experience.
We pride ourselves on equipping our students with the skillset that they need, not only working on industry-standard equipment, but having industrial links which set them up perfectly for a career in engineering.
