MSc Advanced Heat Engineering

Advance your career and change the world, by working to reduce or eliminate one of the major causes of carbon emissions globally

The heat and power sector is undergoing a fundamental transition, and global businesses have to adapt to meet the ever increasing present and future needs. Domestic and industrial heat is responsible for a very significant percentage of global GHG emissions and rectifying that represents a key challenge for engineers and society.

Highly skilled and knowledgeable heat engineers are urgently needed to transition our heat systems to a green, sustainable footing. Accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Advanced Heat Engineering MSc will equip you with the state-of-the-art, forward thinking technical knowledge and skills required to help achieve energy efficiency and reduce heat derived environmental pollution. Closely aligned with industry, with real-world case studies and research projects at its core, this course will enable you to develop a successful and rewarding career as an environmentally aware heat engineering professional, able to make a significant contribution towards a greener, net zero future.

Who is it for?

This course is designed for engineering graduates or practicing engineers who wish to develop a successful career as an environmentally aware energy professional.

The course will equip you with knowledge that can be directly applied to help various sectors improve competitiveness in the face of dwindling resources, probable substantial increases in energy costs and the urgent requirement to comply with the increasingly restrictive pollution control standards.

Your career

There is a considerable demand for environmentally aware energy specialists with in-depth technical knowledge combined with practical and management skills. At Cranfield, our focus is on an industry-led education, which makes our graduates some of the most desirable in the world for recruitment by companies and organisations competing in the energy sector.

Graduates of the course have been successful in gaining employment in energy, environmental and engineering consultancies and design practices, research organisations and government departments or go on to further research studies.
