• MSc in Advanced Mechanical Engineering at Durham University is a 1 years program.
  • It is an on-campus program offered on a full-time basis.
  • This course will provide graduates with advanced knowledge and understanding of Mechanical Engineering in three ways.
  • Firstly, high-quality taught modules will introduce advanced Mechanical Engineering topics such as turbomachinery design, non-linear stress analysis, fluid mechanics, contact, and friction.
  • Secondly, a substantial group design element will equip students with the ability to carry out the advanced design in multinational teams using appropriate design standards and sophisticated engineering analysis tools.
  • Finally, a major research and development project allows the student to demonstrate the ability to work independently on a complex topic and demonstrate initiative in the solution of engineering challenges.
  • The course consists of five core modules to provide advanced engineering education in Advanced Mechanical technologies alongside an optional module that allows students to increase their understanding in an area suited to their interests and needs.
  • In addition to these taught modules, students will also complete a group design project and a major, individual research and development project working closely with an academic in their chosen subject area.
  • The core taught the content of the program includes:
    • Non-linear solid mechanics
    • Fluid mechanics
    • Turbomachinery and propulsion
    • Renewable energy technologies
    • Future vehicles
