Online only
Mechanical Engineering combines theory with workshop practice online. You will study statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, materials science, and computer-aided design. Projects include designing functional prototypes using 3D printing and CNC equipment in the Engineering Workshop. Sustainability and energy efficiency are emphasised throughout the curriculum.
Final-year teams compete in the GMU Design Challenge judged by industry engineers.
Faculty spotlight
Professor Ian Campbell leads Thermodynamics; Dr. Sofia Petrov supervises sustainable design projects.

Modules are assessed through a published mix of coursework, applied projects, and examinations. Exam windows are announced in advance so students in other time zones are not forced into overnight sittings. Alternative arrangements are available where documented.
The published duration is 3 years full-time. Teaching language: English. Actual time-to-complete depends on mode and any recognised prior learning.
This is a fully online award. You study from your country. No student visa and no campus relocation are required.
Degree tuition for this award is published as £0 / tuition-free on the online pathway. Examination or administrative fees may apply at checkout — never an annual tuition invoice. Check the Fees page for any extras.
Requirements are grouped on this page (academic, English, documents). Equivalent qualifications are considered. English may be waived after prior English-medium study.
Assessment is typically a mix of coursework, projects, and examinations. Doctoral awards include a thesis or dissertation and an oral examination. Details sit in the programme specification and module outlines.
Recognition of the award for local employment, professional licence, or ministry attestation is decided by your employer or regulator. GlobalMind University publishes verification pages for certificates. We do not claim automatic equivalence in every country.
