This full-time Master's programme will deepen your technical ability, broaden your understanding of other branches of engineering, and enhance your research skills.
It is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and develops leadership and managerial strengths that can lead to Chartered Engineer (CEng) status.
You’ll develop an advanced understanding of:
Mechanics
Materials selection
Manufacturing
Mechatronics
Computer-aided engineering design
Developing integrated mechanical systems
You'll learn the principles underpinning the design and control of mechanical systems, along with computational and simulation methods used to ensure the reliability and robustness of mechanical systems.
You will use industry-standard computational tools and analysis packages for the analysis, design and evaluation of complex systems, and numerical methods for modelling and analysing engineering problems.

Course programme
The modules for this course can be found in the latest programme specification.
Postgraduate Certificate
- Interdisciplinary Competitive Design (20 credits) – core
To provide the advanced knowledge base necessary to bring a product or project to a successful near market state through a series of structured design and innovation processes in an interdisciplinary group approach to define a product or project to meet market requirements. - Engineering Vibration (20 credits) – core
- Design Optimisation (10 credits) – core
To establish an appreciation for the role of optimisation in modern engineering practice and to provide evidence for the premise that optimisation is one component of an integrated tool kit for addressing and evaluating multiple solutions to a variety of engineering-based problems. - Materials and Manufacturing Processes (20 credits) – optional
- Advanced Manufacturing Technology (10 credits) – optional
To provide for the development and implementation of specialist knowledge/methods in modern approaches to manufacturing. - Computational Fluid Dynamics (10 credits) – optional
To understand fundamental principles of the advanced numerical simulations in hydrodynamics. There will be an emphasis on developing practical skills to build numerical models to simulate free surface flows in practical contexts.
Students will be eligible to exit with the award of Postgraduate certificate if they have successfully completed 60 credits and achieved the award learning outcomes.
Postgraduate Diploma
- Advanced Solid Mechanics (20 credits) – core
To extend knowledge of Solid Mechanics in the context of modern mathematical analysis. To develop understanding of stresses and strains while emphasising their parallels. - Research Skills (10 credits) – core
- Polymer Engineering (20 credits) – optional
- As part of the module you will perform a practical research project to reactively modify a polymer, produce test specimens from the new material and then characterise its properties.
- Supply Chain Management (20 credits) – optional
To develop a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge on supply chain network management. The focus of the module will be on the management of supply chain networks and the integration of supply chain with information communication technologies. - Engineering Computational Methods (10 credits) – optional
To critically review the application of the Finite Element (FE) method as a tool for engineering analysis.
Students will be eligible to exit with the award of Postgraduate Diploma if they have successfully completed at least 120 credits and achieved the award learning outcomes.
Degree of Master
- MSc Project (60 credits) – core
This project will further develop practical evaluation of professional engineering activity in a chosen specialisation. To extend the student's ability to plan, implement and review appropriate activities in a large and academically demanding project, in order to achieve an agreed set of objectives in a given time scale.
Students will be eligible for the award of Degree of Master if they have successfully completed at least 180 credits and achieved the award learning outcomes.
