MSc Mechanical Engineering

The Master of Science Mechanical Engineering with Advanced Practice course at Northumbria University is a two-year programme that aims to provide students with both the foundational and cutting-edge mechanical engineering knowledge necessary to excel in a global industry context. This degree allows students to gain practical experience in a real-world engineering setting through Advanced Practice, consisting of either an internship with a host organisation or a campus-based project.Course Content: The course is split up into a series of modules, each one an opportunity to explore an important aspect of mechanical engineering in detail. The course is designed to include both theory and practical aspects, allowing students to develop a solid understanding of the subject matter. The course combines core themes, including thermodynamics, and stress analysis, with practical project management skills.Key Modules: The core modules include Mechanics of Solids, Computer-Aided Design and Manufacture, Energy Materials and Thermo-fluids, while the optional modules include topics like Performance Engineering, Advanced Materials and Engineering for Safety & Reliability.Accreditations: The MSc course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), ensuring that it's in line with the latest industry standards. The Advanced Practice version of this course is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Board (EAB).Future Careers: Preparing its students for future careers, this course is ideal for those who have high career aspirations and who wish to work in areas such as mechanical engineering, maintenance engineering, and project management within internationally oriented industry and commerce.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
