This course will help you to gain expert knowledge in advanced mechanical engineering topics. You'll also have the opportunity to take modules in general skills such as project management and risk analysis. These are necessary skills for any professional engineer.

You can take up to nine technical modules and three generic modules. MSc students also undertake an individual project.

If you're taking the Advanced Mechanical Engineering (without specialisms) youÕre free to select from any of the classes below.

  • Energy Systems Compulsory modules
  • Materials Compulsory modules
  • Aerospace Optional modules
  • Energy Systems Optional modules
  • Materials Optional modules
  • Power Plant Optional modules
  • Generic modules

If youÕre on a specialist programme, you must include the three compulsory modules from your area of specialism, which you'll find in the 'course content' tab.

MSc students take on an individual project which allows study of a selected topic in-depth. This may be an industry-themed project or one aligned to engineering research at Strathclyde.
