Course Description
- Mechanical engineers design the tools and processes necessary to create all man-made products and are often involved from conceiving an idea right through to seeing it as a finished product ready for its commercial application
- This taught Master’s program is a direct follow-up from the undergraduate BE program in Mechanical Engineering, providing students with the opportunity to take the first step in advanced engineering education and research skills, within the framework of the academic and professional requirements for Chartered Engineer status
- Graduates with an honors degree in a cognate Engineering discipline may be eligible to take the ME
- Applicants wishing to use the ME program as part of their CEng certification should be aware that professional accreditation is assessed by the Engineering Councils based on the aggregate periods of study (Level 8 + Level 9), and not on the Masters program alone
- The qualification creates career opportunities in the mechanical engineering industry (e.g., power generation, renewable energy, machine tool manufacture, equipment manufacture, transport, and aerospace industry, general manufacturing industry, offshore oil, and gas industry)
