2.5-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Science and Engineering - Transfer to Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Mechanical Engineering

Program Description

Build a future by studying in the UK, with a pathway course at Kaplan International College (KIC) London. Situated in the world’s top academic city (QS Best Student Cities 2019), the College will prepare students for a university degree, and for a successful career.

Study at one of the most respected international colleges in London, and progress to one of 8 universities, including the University of Bristol.

The University of Bristol is a highly ranked Russell Group university with a fantastic reputation. Students will join a global community of students from more than 150 countries, and enjoy life in one of the UK’s most exciting cities.

The programme is well balanced, covering a wide range of topics in engineering science and engineering practice.

The curriculum embeds a diverse set of professional engineering and management skills spanning four core thematic areas:

• design and manufacture
  
• dynamics and control
• materials
• thermofluids.

Years one and two are common to all mechanical engineering students and cover the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering. Teaching is via lectures, laboratories, design classes and short projects in modelling and manufacturing.

In the third year students will apply the principles learned to real, complex engineering applications. A major element is the open-ended individual research project, which requires independent and creative thinking.
