Work & Study

Because the course is delivered in intensive blocks, you won’t find yourself having to take regular time out of your busy working week to juggle study and your career; instead you will be able to devote all of your attention to your studies for around a week at a time. Not only does this help you to study more effectively, it also means less disruption for your employer. If you are an international student wishing to live and study in the UK, our dedicated placements team will help you find a suitable business engagement. This could be in the form of a 40 week placement, or a consultancy project.

Successful completion of this course will see you develop a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of a wide range of materials, manufacturing processes and their limitations.

You will apply mathematical and computer-based models for solving problems in engineering design. The nature of this course is business driven and you will apply your knowledge to specific design problems.

The research undertaken as part of the Individual Masters Project will give you an opportunity to explore your particular area of interest in greater depth.
