MSc Automation and Control

You’ll use your existing knowledge of engineering theory and practice as the base to build new skills in this field such as embedded systems and control system design. Using specialist equipment in our dedicated laboratories, you’ll learn to use Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, the industry standard for the development of effective control systems. Combined with a suitable accredited undergraduate degree, the MSc degree would then satisfy the academic requirements of the UK Engineering Council for Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. Subjects include Sustainable energy technologies Embedded system applications Automation and robotics Research skills and project management Control engineering Mechatronic systems MSc project Study modules mentioned above are indicative only.
