MSc Engineering (Mechanical Manufacture)
Overview of the Programme
Government is focusing heavily on boosting the UK manufacturing industry; failure to meet demands for engineering skills could cost the UK £27bn a year.
58% of all new jobs will be STEM related, and the number of those studying for degrees in science, engineering and technology must increase by over 40% on current levels if demands are to be met.
Of all STEM skills, those in mechanical and manufacturing engineering are becoming increasingly highly valued.
Here at Wrexham Glynd?r University, we aim to ensure that the MSc Engineering (Mechanical Manufacturing)comprises fit-for-purpose teaching and research experience to provide a solid background for a career in the engineering and manufacturing industry sector.
Many of the academic staff have industrial experience spanning a broad range of engineering areas and working levels. Many students from previous years are now in jobs at top international companies such as Rolls-Royce, Siemens, Alstom, and Airbus.
Key Course Features
- The courses will give you the chance to advance your career to management levels.
- You might also consider consultancy, research and development, testing and design positions within the mechanical manufacturing industry. Airbus or Magellan Aerospace is a classic example of an employer excelling in this field in the north Wales region.
Assessment and Teaching
You will be assessed throughout your course through a variety of methods including portfolios, presentations and, for certain subjects, examinations.
Teaching and Learning
Teaching methods include lectures, laboratory sessions, student-led seminars and guided research.
Independent learning is an important aspect of all modules, as it enables students to develop both their subject specific and key skills.
Independent learning is promoted through guided study or feedbacks given to students.
Wrexham Glynd?r University is committed to supporting our students to maximise their academic potential.
Career Prospects
The course equips you with a thorough knowledge and skills in engineering at the forefront of new and emerging technologies. Graduates will be well placed to become subject specialists within industry or to pursue research careers within academia.
