This Engineering MSc by Research is ideal for active engineers to explore an industry project and gain an academic award.Two-thirds of this course is a research project that helps you develop expertise in a specific subject. The remainder is made up of options from the department's portfolio of master's courses. It is ideal for industry-based projects and popular with employed students who can pursue research projects related to their industrial careers.Your research project can draw from across the faculty's areas of expertise, including manufacturing systems, control and instrumentation, and bulk solids handling. Recent projects include the design and construction of a test rig, the development of an automated elutriation tester, and the use of standpipes to develop full outlet area activation.The faculty has invested over £1 million in specialised equipment to support teaching and research. You'll benefit from world-class facilities at our Medway Campus in Kent, including 3,000 square metres of state-of-the-art engineering laboratories.
The work undertaken within this course will be an individual piece of work. The subject area of the project will be consistent with the philosophy and aims of the chosen engineering discipline. In all cases the student will be expected to demonstrate elements of independent thinking consistent with the expected research content of a Masters level research project.
The aim of this module is to equip students with perspectives in the philosophy, methodology, project planning and transferable skills such as presentation and communication skills, group working and report writing required to undertake effective scientific, engineering and management research.
The aims of this module are: to develop an in-depth understanding of the strategic vision and the decision making process and the link with operational management; develop the knowledge and skills required for measuring competitiveness and the impact of the remote and operating environments; understand the boundaries and mechanics of the value chain; and understand the importance of the dynamic design of the portfolio of offers and the respective roles of the corporate parent and the strategic business units in the ownership of capabilities and competences.
