Careers
As a BEng (Hons) Manufacturing Engineering graduate, you’ll be well-equipped to progress into positions of responsibility, or further programmes of specialised study or research.
Manufacturing engineers are employed in a wide range of engineering, educational and commercial organisations. They primarily support the activities involved in bringing design programmes into manufacture.
As a BEng (Hons) Manufacturing Engineering graduate, you’re likely to find yourself working closely with other engineers, functions, and managers. Your advanced manufacturing and project management skills will be pivotal to the launch planning and smooth delivery of exciting new products, on time, on cost and to the right quality.
Our free Employability Service will help you take practical steps to follow your chosen career path, secure jobs, and work experience, or even start your own business.
Graduation doesn’t need to be the end of your time with us. You might decide to stay at ARU with postgraduate courses on the horizon for ARU Peterborough. You could also study for a Masters such as MSc Engineering Management at ARU in Chelmsford.
Employability and personal career development
Informed by employers, our courses support an integrated approach to employability. You’ll have opportunities to develop the skills and abilities they are looking for and gain a deeper understanding of how your academic learning relates to the world of work through Live Briefs and Ruskin Modules.
To amplify your career ambition, you will need to actively dedicate time outside of your studies, whether you choose to explore placements, internships or volunteering. Or you could make a social impact by collaborating with our partner organisations through our volunteer scheme Students at the Heart of Knowledge Exchange (SHoKE). These all give you an edge, providing you with experience that you will be able to evidence on your CV and talk about in interviews.
Our Employability and Careers Service offers a range of expert advice and support to build your unique professional profile, including tailored career appointments, advice on writing your CV, and help to complete job applications. You’ll have 24/7 access to the Careers Centre, our comprehensive online digital resource, which empowers you to start building a Personal Career Development Plan from the very start. Design your future at ARU.
