Location of Dublin City University
In response to the pressing demands of industry, computer-aided engineering programmes have been run in the UK and elsewhere since 1985.
Although some modules (or similar ones) on these programmes can be found in various postgraduate programmes at other Irish universities, none offers a complete programme like the M.Sc./Graduate Diploma in Computer-aided Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering.
Candidates who do not qualify for direct entry must pass an Access Course before starting the M.Sc./Graduate Diploma programme. The Access Course aims to equalise the knowledge of students who do not have a primary degree in mechanical or manufacturing engineering with that of students with a more relevant primary degree.
Contents
This one year, part-time programme consists of five modules that deal with Engineering Mathematics, Thermo-Fluid Mechanics, Mechanics of Materials, Mechanics of Machines and Manufacturing Processes. These are taken in conjunction with undergraduate programmes in the school.
Students must pass all modules to complete the programme, and entry to the Graduate Certificate/Graduate Diploma/M.Sc. programme will be determined by your existing Honours degree (level 8) qualification. View the Subjects/Modules currently taught on this programme.
Career Prospects:
The Access programme offers an entry route to the Postgraduate programmes in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering which opens up many opportunities to its graduates. Some students have launched a new career in design and manufacturing, often based on new skills they have developed and nurtured during the MSc project. Part-time students have found that their career progression has been more rapid, or that new roles have opened up with their employers. Others have progressed to PhD research and gained further advancement and recognition. In a time of competition for positions, the extra qualifications provided by this programme are a valuable addition to your CV.
