We aim to ensure that the MSc Engineering (Mechanical Manufacturing) comprises fit-for-purpose teaching and research experience to provide a solid background for a career in the engineering and manufacturing industry sector. The Government is focusing heavily on boosting the UK manufacturing industry; failure to meet demands for engineering skills could cost the UK £27bn a year. 58% of all new jobs will be STEM related, and the number of those studying for degrees in science, engineering and technology must increase by over 40% on current levels if demands are to be met. Of all STEM skills, those in mechanical and manufacturing engineering are becoming increasingly highly valued.[1] - Many of our graduates are now in jobs at top international companies such as Rolls-Royce, Siemens, Alstom, and Airbus. - The taught element of the programme includes design, and stress and fluid dynamics analysis, using state of the art commercial software, such as ANSYS. - Develop your skills in particular aspects through your choice of MSc research project, which would be aligned with one of the University Research Centres.

Available: https://www.engineeringuk.com/media/1466/enguk-report-2015-interactive.pdf Key course features: - Open door policy to meet with tutors - Additional support provided through workshops - Select from optional modules to enhance your curriculum pathway - The programme is accredited with the IMechE & IET (subject to accreditation in 2023)

Getting in

As the university states it

Normal entry requirements for full time and part time intake will be one of: - A Bachelor of Engineering Honours Degree, or other Bachelor Honours Degree, normally with an honour’s degree with at least a 2:2 classification or equivalent in an appropriate engineering discipline. - Applicants who do not meet the minimum entry requirement but have substantial professional experience in a relevant specialist area may be accepted, subject to interview and references. - Equivalent qualifications of another overseas country which are deemed satisfactory by the program team. Normally, the applicants applied through entry points (b) and (c) will be required to attend for an interview. This is not always possible, e.g., overseas students, in which case the application form and ‘home’ tutor’s recommendations will be used to decide suitability; phone, internet and video conferencing may also be used. Places on the programmes will be offered based on applicants’ background qualifications and, where appropriate, experiences. Non-standard entry criteria According to the Regulations for Wrexham University: ‘Taught master’s Degrees’, it is possible for a non-graduate to be admitted to candidature provided that: - They have a non-graduate qualification which Wrexham University has deemed to be of a satisfactory standard for the purpose of post graduate admission, and - they held, for a minimum of two years, a responsible position which is relevant to the programme to be pursued within the previous five years.’ - Irrespective of a candidate’s entry qualifications, the student must provide evidence to the satisfaction of the interview panel of his/her ability to complete academic work of the required standard to successfully complete the scheme of study proposed.
