This programme allows graduate engineers or those from related disciplines to specialise in, or convert to, Marine Engineering. Marine Engineering is concerned with the design, construction, installation, and support of the systems and equipment onboard marine vehicles, with particular emphasis on propulsion and control systems.

High efficiency and low environmental impact of marine engines are the key factors in assuring economical operation and environmental protection in maritime transportation, which has important implications for both economic success and environmental impact.

The course has three components as follows :

* Instructional Modules
* Group Project
* Individual Project (MSc only)

Careers
Graduates are prepared for openings in a wide range of challenging and rewarding careers in the marine and related industries. These include marine engineering machinery and system design, surveying, technical superintendence, project management, safety management, support services, classification societies and consultancy services.

Entry Requirements

The normal qualification for MSc course is a BEng with second class Honours or better. Marginally lower qualifications will be considered for PGDip. PGDip candidates who perform well in the taught classes may be considered for transfer to MSc degree course, if so wished.

Overseas applicants and unconventional qualifications will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Applicants with sea-going experience are invited to specify their experience relevant to the course.

Students with a Diploma from some approved overseas institutions (for example Norwegian Høgskolen) may be admitted into a specially designed two-year course.

Most students whose mother tongue is not English will be required to prove that they have sufficient fluency in English. The normal standard required is IELTS 6.5, TOEFL 600 or TOEFL 250 (computer-based test). Students who obtained their first degree taught in English and those from certain countries may be exempt from this requirement. Applicants who have marginally lower scores of the above tests may be required to attend one or more modules of the pre-session English course offered by Strathclyde University's English Language Teaching Division (ELTD).
