Course Summary

The MSc in Computational Engineering is for students seeking to acquire the necessary skills to develop and apply computational methods for performing virtual simulations of a wide range physical problems, including solid mechanics, fluid dynamics, wave propagation and multi-physics. Applicants to this MSc are usually students with a background in an Engineering (mechanical, aerospace, civil or electrical) or Science (mathematics, physics) discipline. This is a multidisciplinary programme, with modules that are complementary to those seeking to develop computational engineering skills to further their careers in Engineering and Science. Students will develop solid programming skills and they will be able to tailor their degree by choosing one of the two available specialisations: Data-Driven methods: Students will specialise in the integration of numerical methods and machine learning techniques with big data for solving real-life engineering and scientific problems. Numerical techniques: Students will specialise in the development and analysis of modern computational methods with particular emphasis on the research aspect.

Modules

EG-D04 - MSc Dissertation - Civil and Computational Engineering (60 Credits) - Core

The module aims to develop fundamental research skills. It comprises the development of supervised research work leading to a dissertation in the field of the Master's degree programme. The specific research topic will be chosen by the student following consultation with academic staff. On completion of this module, students should have the ability to: Investigate a research topic in detail; Formulate research aims; Devise and plan a research strategy to fulfil the aims; Carry out research work - undertake a literature search, a laboratory based or computer based investigation or a combination of these; Gather, organize and use evidence, data and information from a variety of primary and secondary sources; Critically analyse information; Make conclusions supported by the work and identify their relevance to the broader research area; Resolve or refine a research problem, with reasoned suggestions about how to improve future research efforts in the field; and produce a report (dissertation), with the findings presented in a well organised and reasoned manner.
