Masters Degree Description

Brunel's Advanced Mechanical Engineering MSc will develop your knowledge, understanding, and skills in subjects related to the discipline, with close links to both existing MEng courses and significant research in the College. The main aim of this programme is to create Master’s degree graduates with qualities and transferable skills for challenging employment in mechanical engineering industries. The elective themes of Fluids Engineering and Solid & Structural Mechanics will provide you with ideal skills to solve real-world engineering problems, including elements of robotics, artificial intelligence, materials and manufacturing, engineering design and sustainable energy technologies. You will have the independent learning ability required for continuing professional development and acquiring new skills at a high level. The programme is designed to help you to develop themes of expertise in particular subject areas, mainly through the group project and dissertation. The course also provides a useful introduction should you wish to study for a higher degree.

Brunel's expert academics are conducting some of the latest research in the field and this feeds directly into the course teaching. They collaborate with major oil companies, vehicle manufacturers, and leading industrial firms and government laboratories. We also work with universities around the world. 

You'll have access to our well-equipped laboratories with dedicated areas for fluid mechanics, internal combustion engines, vibrations and structural testing, and will use our high-tech computing facilities for simulation and modelling of fluids and structural engineering research.

Our advanced mechanical engineering course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and is studied full-time over one year.

Entry Requirements

A 2:2 (or above) UK Honours degree or equivalent internationally recognised qualification in an Engineering (Mechanical, Aeronautical or Aerospace) or Technology discipline, Physics or Maths. Other subjects in a related area, including but not limited to physics and mathematics will be considered and assessed on an individual basis.

Entry to this programme requires all students who are not nationals of the European Economic Area (EEA) and have temporary immigration permission to remain in the UK  to obtain an ATAS certificate. If you are made an offer to join this course and you are not an EEA national, you will be required to obtain an ATAS certificate as a condition of your offer.
