This course is specifically aimed at International students, supporting those wishing to gain practical work based experiential learning. Together with studying your chosen course we are offering an additional 6 month placement opportunity, making the course 18 months in length. This allows students with limited experience to put into practice the skills and techniques developed throughout the Master’s degree.

Industrial productivity and performance of many UK manufacturing companies, when compared to recognised world leaders, is considered by many to be of concern. Part of the underlying cause of this problem is the lack of well-educated and trained engineering and technology graduates entering the Engineering Management disciplines who are able to develop appropriate management strategies and to apply best practice techniques and technologies to industrial problems.

This course is designed to extend the knowledge, skills and ability of a graduate in engineering, technology and applied sciences to the level required for senior positions in the engineering industry.

Students studying this course will also be provided with access to the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) resources during their studies with us.
