Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Mechanical Engineering has state of the art facilities to help you make the most of studying with us.
MechSpace
MechSpace is a student hub in London’s King’s Cross for designing and building practical projects. The facility spans six levels, with some 12,000 square feet of space and an array of well-equipped workshops a computer cluster and study spaces. A 15-minute walk from Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø's Bloomsbury Campus, this is where mechanical engineering students learn and practice practical engineering skills, and take advantage of a range of opportunities.
MechSpace is also home to the department's successful extracurricular student teams (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Racing), including Eco-Marathon, Formula Student, Mars Rover, Rocket, UAS and Human-Powered Submarine teams. The facility hosts a range of STEM outreach activities for younger students like 'F1 in Schools' and 'Girls on Track' and hosts Repair Cafés for both the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø and wider communities.
