This course is for people in manufacturing who want to keep up to date with technological change.
There is a management component and a technical component that cover various aspects of materials processing and applications. These modules are of interest to anyone with an industrial background. You can choose modules to meet your own needs.
This course improves career potential by developing management and technical expertise. Many of our former students have subsequently achieved board and senior management level in their companies.
This part-time modular programme of short courses, coupled with a dissertation leads to a masters degree. Teaching is carried out by University staff and industry practitioners, which ensures the scheme has academic rigour and up-to-the-minute industrial relevance.
Several of our graduates have achieved board and senior management level in their respective companies.
