Advanced Materials Engineering

Entry requirements

Normally a first-class or second-class honours degree (or international equivalent) in engineering or physical sciences, or equivalent professional qualification. A lower class degree may be considered with relevant work experience.

Months of entry

September

Course content

• build a comprehensive understanding of fundamental materials engineering, including industrial metallurgy, composites and advanced materials
• gain a broad knowledge base of advanced manufacturing processes and the role of materials sciences play in these
• take advantage of industry exposure via sponsored research projects, site visits and guest lectures and other employability led initiatives with the National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland and the Advanced Forming Research Centre

The MSc Advanced Materials Engineering programme cultivates a theoretical and practical understanding of the fundamental aspects of material engineering within its graduates by exploring various aspects of the discipline such as:

• materials science
• industrial metallurgy
• composites
• advanced materials

Our students benefit from the strategic partnership we hold with the National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland and the Advanced Forming Research Centre. This relationship offers students prolonged exposure to leading research across materials engineering through sponsored research projects, site visits, guest lectures and other employability-led initiatives.

During their programme, students will study a number of compulsory and technical modules, as well as develop professional skills across topics such as design management, sustainability and financial engineering.

Students will also complete an individual research project which may be industry-themed or aligned to engineering research at Strathclyde.
