Offers will then be made to late applications only if places are still available on the programme and if candidates meet the selection criteria requirements.
This programme was developed in response to increasing demands for highly skilled graduates in the field of mechanical engineering applied to the manufacturing and pharma-chem industries. The aim is to produce Mechanical Engineering postgraduates who are proficient in the development and realisation of modern manufacturing, process and automation systems.
This is achieved through developing an understanding of the concepts of manufacturing systems, and the skills to analyse, design and implement manufacturing systems in practice. This is combined with an understanding of process automation and operational management, The course will enable candidates to develop an up to date knowledge of manufacturing techniques and processes.
