ADVANCED MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
MSc Advanced Mechanical Engineering
1 year full time | Course code: H341
FOCUS ON THE KEY SKILLS REQUIRED BY THE MODERN MECHANICAL ENGINEER.
Our MSc in Advanced Mechanical Engineering enables students to develop the versatility and depth of knowledge to deal with new and unusual challenges across a wide range of disciplines, within engineering and beyond. Within the School of Engineering, teaching is underpinned by research in automotive systems, biomedical engineering, solid and fluid mechanics, electrical and thermal energy systems, energy conversion/storage and sustainable cities.
Core modules will provide advanced knowledge in fundamental topics of mechanical engineering and will also allow you to develop skills required to execute engineering projects involving multiple stakeholders. Optional modules allow you to select complementary topics that are of particular interest to you.
You will also complete an individual research project: an in-depth experimental, theoretical or computational investigation of a topic chosen by you in conjunction with your academic supervisor.
Previous graduates have gone on the work for companies such as Arup, Rolls-Royce and Siemens. Others have chosen to continue their studies by doing a PhD at Warwick or elsewhere.
"This course has offered me an equally challenging and rewarding opportunity to develop my teamwork and software skills, and mechanical engineering knowledge.
I have also been impressed with the university's dynamic response to the pandemic, which has provided me with security in my learning, in a time of great uncertainty.”
Entry Requirements
A minimum of a 2.1 undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in an engineering, physical sciences or mathematical subject. Maths and English language requirements also apply. We are willing to consider applications from students with lower qualifications on a case-by-case basis.
