Course summary
This course was previously known as BEng Ship Science.Maritime Engineering covers the design, construction and testing of the vessels and offshore structures that use the ocean for transport, recreation and the harnessing of marine resources. This three-year course covers the theoretical principles of naval architecture and marine engineering alongside practical laboratories, design modules and projects.The first two years are the same for both the BEng and MEng Maritime Engineering, providing you with a thorough understanding of the science and engineering associated with marine vehicles, structures, and their design.In your third year you will extend your knowledge through advanced naval architecture modules, and carry out an individual project, bringing together the concepts and skills you have learned.You will have access to extensive facilities, which include dedicated student design studios and workshops, a 138m towing tank with wave maker, wind tunnel complex and a professional manufacturing centre. Our courses are fully accredited by the Royal Institution of Naval Architects, the Institution of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology, and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and offer a route to chartered status.
