Study Details: 1 Year Full-time
In the MSc Advanced Mechanical Engineering, we ensure that students develop comprehensive views of their subject beyond one single perspective or worldview. We incorporate different perspectives across the disciplines and highlight the fact that to become an industry leader of the future, the engineer needs to have a broad knowledge of all the related disciplines and know how to use them individually or combined to tackle technical problems with confidence.
Component materials, design, computational analysis, efficient production and unmanned manufacturing methods are the most important aspects that a mechanical engineer should master. In addition, studying in a multicultural environment with students coming from different backgrounds will give you a real view of how industry works.
You will have the opportunity to experience this in your Group Design Project module, where students will propose a multidisciplinary project and will work together to deliver it. Findings will be given to a panel of experts in the form of a collaborative oral presentation and a technical report. The Global Outlook integrated into this programme has been designed in consultation with key industry players and following their recommendations.
The entry requirement for this course is a Bachelor (Honours) Degree at a 2:2 or above. We look for applicants to have a background related to mechanical, structural, manufacturing or aeronautical engineering.
We may also consider lesser qualifications if you have sufficient relevant work experience within the mechanical/manufacturing engineering industry.
Please note, nationals of particular countries who receive an offer for this course are required to apply for an ATAS certificate. More information about this can be found on the GOV.UK website.
Can I get admission into Advanced Mechanical Engineering based on my working experience in this sector?
This course has academic entry requirements which are assessed alongside relevant work experience. Full details of any relevant work experience, including references should be submitted with your application and may be considered for entry where the minimum academic entry requirements are below those required.
Usually, unrelated work experience is not considered sufficient for entry without meeting the minimum academic entry requirements. Please contact us with your specific circumstances by submitting an enquiry form above and we will be happy to discuss your options.

On successful completion of this programme, you will have the knowledge, understanding and skills to opt for a career in both the private and public sectors. This will include:
Alternatively, you will be eligible to apply to doctoral-level study in mechanical/structural engineering, computational modelling, energy, manufacturing and engineering design at the University or to seek entry to doctoral-level study at another higher education institution.
This MSc is a project-based programme where the students will work on the virtual environment as well as with hands-on models that will help them develop the necessary skills to succeed as an engineer in the industry of the future. Finite element simulation, LCA, statistical analysis, industrial plant layout, reverse engineering projects and robot programming are some of the topics to be covered in this provision.
Typically, you will receive two hours of lectures and two hours of tutorials/practice sessions per module per week where you will be taught following a project-based approach.
Whether you want to move up in your career, or onto a new one, our innovative, industry-focused postgraduate courses can give you the skills you need ...
