This course provides broad-based knowledge of the latest technological developments in mechanical engineering, including internal combustion engines, renewable energy and alternative fuel, computational fluid dynamics, vehicle engineering and design and industry-standard CAD tools
Teaching and Assessment Teaching
The course is taught by staff from the School of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences and some external industrial experts. Teaching methods include lectures, tutorials and seminars. Throughout the programme, teaching and learning strategies are designed to encourage independent self study and teamwork, creativity and critical thinking.
Assessment
Assessment is based on marks obtained throughout the year for courseworks, class tests, and end-of-year examinations. Modules, based on coursework only, are assessed through substantial individually designed courseworks, assignments and small projects. IT skill is assessed through submitted work on CATIA design reports and computational courseworks.
Career Prospects Blending theory and practice, this course develops the broad skills and knowledge base required by mechanical engineers, providing a platform for career development.
Course Content City's internationally-recognised Research Centre for Energy and the Environment has excellent computational and experimental facilities which cover all topics including several modern test facilities for experimentations and advanced optical/mechanical instruments for different diagnostic methods.
Completion of modules and examinations will lead to the award of a Postgraduate Diploma. The completion of modules, examinations and dissertation will lead to the award of a Masters degree. Specialisations include computeraided design, energy systems and management, screw compressors and expanders, experimental techniques, mechatronics or fuel cells.
