Why Study at AME?

AME offers a blend of innovative activity-led teaching, product development and research to create a unique learning environment for up to 38 students every year.

All of this is delivered on ‘live’ manufacturing projects by world class industry professionals and the brightest academic minds and professors.

The UK’s first ‘Faculty on the Floor’ learning experience is open to both domestic and international undergraduates and postgraduates.

You will study in a dedicated manufacturing hub, filled with £8m of state-of-the-art equipment, testing your skills on world class processes and playing an important role in bringing new sustainable technologies to a global marketplace.
