In December 2024, the University of Bolton was granted permission by the Office for Students (OfS) to change its name to the University of Greater Manchester with immediate effect. While we work to update our systems, you may see both names used in the information we provide. This programme is going through the process of accreditation/reaccreditation with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). The University of Greater Manchester’s MSc in Mechanical Engineering aims to meet the industry's need for professional engineers with postgraduate knowledge and skills. It's an ideal choice if you’re an ambitious graduate seeking to achieve Chartered Engineer (CEng) status to advance your career. Our MSc in Mechanical Engineering focuses on preparing you for industry. It's designed to take you from your bachelor's degree to a role in the mechanical engineering industry. Written with industry collaboration, our dedicated, knowledgeable team will cover the key areas needed to make you stand out to employers. We'll concentrate on advanced mechanics, materials and manufacturing, and advanced thermal power and energy systems processing. By working with industry players and local engineering companies to write the programme, we're ensuring that the core ethos, skills and projects are industry-centred, realistic and designed to maximise your employability. You'll explore topics from both the theoretical and practical perspectives, gaining hands-on experience in our integrated state-of-art testing lab. You'll also have opportunities to learn and improve your design, simulation and modelling skills using widely applied commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA) software. Our dedicated and knowledgeable team will work to help you prepare to develop and innovate as the industry evolves. Additionally, the course is designed to address all the competencies set out by the Engineering Council and UK-SPEC and to support you in achieving Chartered Engineering (CEng) status. So, if you're an ambitious mechanical engineering graduate seeking to develop advanced material, manufacturing and energy system knowledge while boosting your understanding of core engineering principles and developing the skills to analyse and solve complex engineering problems, this postgraduate degree should prove an excellent investment in your future.
