Course content

This programme was developed following an increase in demand for design engineers who can design and assess new ships and offshore structures. It is designed for graduate engineers or those from related disciplines who will be introduced to ultimate strength, fatigue and design concepts for structural components of ships and offshore floating systems. The programme will provide students with knowledge of material behaviour together with factors influencing the dynamic behaviour of offshore installations.
