3.5-Term Pathway - Pre-Master's for Science and Engineering - Continue to Master of Science (Engineering) - Advanced Mechanical Engineering

This programme aims to provide students with a sound understanding of Advanced Mechanical Engineering principles and the ability to undertake teamwork and communicate ideas. The core modules studied in the programme will develop students' understanding and knowledge of the principles of Advanced Mechanical Engineering to an advanced level. They include specialist knowledge in thermo and fluid dynamics, combustion in IC engines, alternative and conventional energy generation methods and nuclear engineering. Students will be taught techniques for managing projects and research, giving them highly desirable skills for working in industry.

Project work which contributes 60 credits, will be based on a topic of industrial or scientific relevance, and will be carried out in laboratories in the University or at an approved placement in industry. The project is examined by dissertation, and award of the MSc (Eng) degree will require evidence of in-depth understanding, mastery of research techniques, ability to analyze assembled data, and assessment of outcomes.
