Will AI take the jobs this course leads to?
Mechanical and Offshore Engineering at Robert Gordon University.
Across the jobs this course's graduates actually enter, AI is already used for about 23% of the measured tasks. The figure blends the published destination jobs below with the course's subject-level baseline, so it is not a straight average of the table. It is a measurement of today's AI usage, not a prediction that the jobs disappear, and not a judgment on the course.
Where its graduates go
Destination shares are the course's own published outcomes; exposure per destination blends published AI-usage research (Anthropic and OpenAI, 2026) with our own UK review of moats, robotics and scientific developments. The 4 largest scored destinations are shown, covering 100% of graduates; remaining destinations are smaller or unpublished, and the headline above also reflects the subject baseline.
