Students at UCL's Department of Mechanical Engineering enjoy individual and group research and design projects with academics who are world-leaders in their fields.
Mechanical Engineering covers a huge range of applications - from bamboo bicycles to nano-scale flows to ultra-efficient vehicles. Here's a showcase of some of our 4th Year Student Projects.
Have a peek inside MechSpace, an impressive student facility dedicated to MechEng students, to meet, design and build prototypes and hone their practical engineering skills. MechSpace is also home to UCL Racing (UCLR) a group of student racing teams which including the Shell Eco Marathon, Rocket, Formula Student, Mars Rover and the Unmanned Aerial Systems Challenge teams.
Following their success in IMechE's Greater London Region Design Challenge competition this spring, the first and second-year teams from UCL brought home the top prizes in the national final of the IMechE Design Challenge for the second year running.
