About this course

This MSc programme is for engineering graduates who want to specialise and upskill in this innovative and fast-growing field. You can tailor your degree programme to build on your past experience, and reflect your interests and chosen specialism.

  • Get involved in internationally-leading research at a top UK university.

  • Accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and Royal Aeronautical Society, enabling you to pursue Chartered Engineer status.

  • Work within our excellent facilities.

    What you'll study This course aims to help students become mechanical engineering specialists with advanced skills in computational modelling, numerical and experimental techniques.

    You'll choose from one of our two professional pathways - Computational Design and Engineering, or Energy and Thermofluids. Upon completing this programme, we expect that you will be able to perform design and analysis of mechanical engineering systems in your chosen area, and develop novel computational and technology products for the mechanical engineering industries.

    You’ll complete a substantial research project in our excellent facilities, supervised by our research staff.

    You’ll also have opportunities to gain industrial experience with our industrial partners, who provide real design case studies throughout the curriculum. Recent case studies were delivered by Bridgestone, DePuys, Baxter, Artis, Corus, BAe, DSTL and Rolls Royce.

    Structure This programme offers two pathways: Computational Design and Engineering or Energy and Thermofluids. In both pathways, you will undertake an extended research project across 3 semesters. Please visit the course page for details of the modules taught on each pathway: https://www.qmul.ac.uk/postgraduate/taught/coursefinder/courses/advanced-mechanical-engineering-msc/
