This MSc Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering course allows students to tailor the course to their own needs. Learners gain the knowledge needed for careers in the mechanical and manufacturing engineering fields, as well as critical insight of management issues and extensive knowledge of industrial applications.
Students will be able to pursue specialist interests through the project element of the course. Many of the projects undertaken by students reflect the key research interests of the department, such as manufacturing, bulk materials handling and instrumentation. However, projects are also derived from the university's links with industry or from students' own interests or experiences.
This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology as satisfying the further learning requirements for Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration. Individuals must hold a CEng-accredited honours degree as well as the accredited MSc for full exemption to CEng status.
Lectures are delivered by members of the School of Engineering who have the relevant globally recognised specialism within the respective field. Guest speakers bring additional perspectives from industry or research and keep students updated with the latest industry standards in their discipline.
Greenwich uses different teaching approaches to give students a varied experience. This includes lectures, interactive paper-led discussions and exercises to encourage creative thinking. The taught modules are informed by research and the theory of each topic is accompanied by practical elements covering paper-based, computer-based and hands-on building type challenges.
This Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering programme is designed to give students the space for exploratory and independent study. They'll work towards individual and group assignments and undertake the preparation or follow-up work associated with lectures, seminars, integrative assignments and laboratory classes. Moreover, learners can take advantage of a range of extra-curricular opportunities available within the university and elsewhere.
This course provides a wide variety of opportunities for mechanical and manufacturing engineers in a range of sectors, from the automotive to the process industries.
