Mechanical Engineering MSc

University of Portsmouth

Drive your engineering career further with a Master's that works with your professional practice. You'll advance your understanding of core mechanical engineering disciplines, from structural integrity to control systems, and design your own project around your career needs. On this MSc Mechanical Engineering, you'll apply current professional methodologies, assess the requirements of mechanical engineering applications, and find the optimal materials and methods to deliver your projects. You'll plan and produce a personal research project, supported by staff expertise, that ties into the job you have - or the job you want. Previous projects have investigated the structural integrity of aerodynamic elements, the performance of natural bulletproof materials, and the effects of complex structures on fluid dynamics. Course highlights Experiment with advanced materials (alloys, polymers, ceramics and composites) and energy engineering systems in dedicated mechanical engineering labs Use advanced simulation and modelling software such as Abaqus, MATLAB, Simulink and CCM+ Connect with your lecturers' industry partners, in the UK and abroad, and have the opportunity to investigate real-life industrial problems Tie-in your individual project with one of our research groups, and benefit from the expertise of our experienced research staff Research topics including aerospace materials, design engineering, polymers and composites, and energy engineering
