MSc Engineering Control Systems and Instrumentation
About the course
This advanced course has been developed in consultation with industry and is supported by our internationally recognised academic and research staff and the industry standard facilities based in our Centre for Precision Technologies (CPT).
This course will enable you as a graduate or an engineer from industry, to acquire the key skills to operate effectively in a modern engineering manufacturing environment. In the context of this course, the engineering manufacturing industry is defined as:
- industries that manufacture or use machine tools and automated equipment for the production of precision engineering components.
- the process industries where process control systems and measurement instrumentation are also very important.
Our facilities include an impressive range of professionally equipped laboratories for control, electrical, electronic and communications projects. In addition we also have:
- computer numerical control (CNC) machine tool facility,
- metrology laboratory for aspiring engineers wishing to undertake projects related to manufacturing control.
- computing laboratories equipped with industry standard software for measurement control and for computer aided engineering applications.
With our support you will develop the practical skills and expert knowledge required to succeed in roles in technical design, development and project management in the areas of controls systems and instrumentation; improving your technical effectiveness and preparing you for roles in management.
Enhance your career
Previous graduates from courses in this subject area have gone on to work in a variety of roles such as control systems engineer, electronic engineer, junior control and instrumentation engineer, and validation and verification engineer in organisations including Bentley Motors, Spirax Sarco, Changan UK Ltd and Nespak.
