Mechanical engineering focuses on applying engineering principles and scientific knowledge in innovative ways to transform our environment by creating new materials, technologies, systems, and products. Professionals in this field conceive and build all types of moving systems and components, from massive spacecraft and aircraft to high-performance vehicles, from everyday appliances like freezers to the tiny mechanisms in CD players, from automated industrial robots to microscopic nanotechnology, from medical prosthetics and implants to exercise equipment, and from fossil fuel extraction methods to renewable energy solutions like wind power.
Our modern world depends on Electrical Engineers for diverse applications spanning small-scale electrical devices, automated control mechanisms, to large-scale power generation and transmission networks. Electrical Engineering forms the foundation of contemporary technology, encompassing computing systems, digital electronics, optical technologies, and countless electronic innovations.

Qualification Requirements
SQA Highers
Standard: ABBB (Mathematics and Physics or Engineering Science required*)
Applicants who achieve the Standard entry requirements over S4 and S5 will be made either an unconditional or conditional offer of admission.
Minimum: BBB (Good performance required in Mathematics and Physics*)
Applicants who achieve our Minimum entry requirements over S4 and S5 are encouraged to apply and will be considered. Good performance in additional Highers / Advanced Highers maybe required in order to receive an offer of admission.
Adjusted: BB (Good performance required in Mathematics*)
Applicants who meet one or more of our widening access criteria and who achieve good performance in Maths and one other subject are guaranteed a conditional offer. Good performance in additional Highers / Advanced Highers will be required.
* These subjects can be either held at the time of application or be achieved during the appropriate admissions cycle.
