Mechanical Engineering MSc
The MSc gives you the chance to learn advanced concepts thatch covers areas of mechanical
engineering, including materials science, thermofluids / energy systems, rigid / deformable body
mechanics, manufacturing, strategy and design. Mechanical Engineering is the innovative application
of engineering and management sciences, which underpin existing and emerging technologies, to
the complete life cycle of all mechanical devices, machines and systems. The MSc curriculum has
been developed to provide an advanced mechanical engineering education at Master’s level, and
the intention is to produce graduates with a strong academic background who are ready to enter
cutting-edge industry.
The course is delivered by the Faculty of Science and Engineering, and is located at the historic Exton
Park site in Chester. Graduates of the course will be in demand from a broad spectrum of
engineering organisations, particularly those within the automotive, aerospace, R&D, consultancy
and manufacturing sectors. The transferable skills that can be gained from this course will mean that
graduates are also able to enter careers in management, finance, IT and the armed forces.
