Mechanical engineering is surely one of the most demanded and popular engineering disciplines. It is predicted that, in the United Kingdom alone, there will be demand for 100,000 new STEM (Science, Technology and Engineering) professionals per year, thus the Royal Academy of Engineering sent out a message that 'Demand for graduate engineers exceeds supply'.As it is a requirement to have an MEng or MSc engineering qualification to achieve a professional affiliation like Chartered Engineer status, an MSc programme would address your needs to attain such status and widen and deepen your skillset for solving 21st-century technical challenges.Mechanical engineering, arguably the mother of all engineering disciplines, is one of the most popular student destinations here in the UK and beyond. The discipline applies engineering, physics, engineering mathematics, and materials science principles to design, operate, analyse, manufacture, and maintain industrial systems consistently and reliably.Your academic team includes a dynamic mix of research-active industrial practitioners, renowned researchers, chartered professionals and technologists, whose combined knowledge ensures you leave with a comprehensive understanding of advanced mechanical engineering practice and research.Engineering is a growth industry and currently, there is a shortage of quality engineers in the UK. Our mechanical engineering programme is unique, as there is a strong emphasis on professional life and employability skills, embedded throughout all aspects of your advanced technical course focusing on your enhanced key skills such as communication, digital proficiency, intelligence (like emotional and social) and teamwork.
This module provides you with the opportunity to study higher level applied fluid mechanics, with emphasis on power-producing and energy systems.
This module develops your knowledge and understanding of industrial and mobile robots, including other key components and software which make up robotic systems; and provides you with knowledge of a wide range of topics in the field of robotics, including the development of robots in the context of industrial applications and mobile robots.
This module will introduce you to the principles of Industry 4.0 (fourth industrial revolution) including the current trends in smart sensing, automation and data exchange in manufacturing. You will demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of how industry 4.0 integrates smart sensors, communication networks and cloud storage to optimise production and enhance manufacturing yield.
The aim of this module is to enable you to undertake a placement in a relevant industrial environment to develop their technical and professional skills, within a real work environment to compliment their programme of study.
