Advanced Mechanical Engineering

This MSc prepares engineers to tackle complex problems through simulation, analysis and whole-system design. Energy engineering receives particular attention, reflecting its weight in global industry. Learners deepen their grounding in mechanical engineering principles and learn to shift between concept, computer modelling and real-world application. Applied modules and projects grounded in research carry much of the teaching, supported by experimental and computational facilities. Alongside technical content, the programme develops leadership and communication skills for multidisciplinary teams. Students may draw on expertise across the university when a project benefits from it. Graduates are equipped for senior engineering roles in energy, manufacturing and related sectors where advanced analysis is required. The course is offered full-time or part-time, allowing working engineers to study alongside their careers. The programme helps engineers take on responsibility for complex projects in industry.
