Advanced Materials Science and Engineering

Learn how to solve problems in materials science on this Master's course, designed to suit talented engineers and scientists with a passion for understanding and creating innovative materials.

You'll acquire core materials science and engineering knowledge that can be applied to a wide range of materials-based careers. This flexible programme covers many aspects of both the science of materials and engineering applications through coursework and original research components.

You'll advance your understanding of the characterisation of materials, in particular their structural, thermal, morphological and chemical properties.

This course also offers you the chance to work on real research projects as part of established research groups. This collaborative work will see you design, assess, implement and review solutions to real-life engineering problems.

You will be given the option to specialise in materials for the Energy Transition or Theory and Simulation of Materials and if you meet the additional criteria will be eligible for the following extra annotation on your degree certificate: Specialising in Materials for the Energy Transition or Specialising in Theory and Simulation of Materials.
