The MSc (by Coursework) Mechanical Engineering programme is offered only on a full-time basis over one year.

 

Accreditation

The MSc in Mechanical Engineering programme is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) under licence from the UK regulator, the Engineering Council. The accredited MSc will meet, in part, the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Accredited MSc graduates who also have a BEng (Hons) accredited for CEng will be able to show that they have satisfied the educational base for CEng registration.
