MSc - Master of Science
Railway Operation / Maintenance Rail Vehicle Engineering
Taught
Combining core railway knowledge with project management, our Railway Engineering with Project Management MSc (Eng) will prepare you to construct and operate the world’s most important rail lines.
Considering the global growth in rail, this presents exciting opportunities for graduates as industry growth has created an acute shortage of skilled railway engineers and project managers.
This Masters degree is unique due to its focus on multidisciplinary teaching. The core technical material covers the entire railway system, rather than focusing on an individual engineering area. It is then complemented by the engineering management material at the forefront of the discipline.
Teaching combines expertise across two of the University of Leeds’s world-leading institutes: the?Institute for High Speed Rail and System Integration?and the?Institute for Transport Studies.
Throughout the programme, you'll be taught by staff who are professionally experienced and have the latest research expertise, equipping you with the practical and professional skills that are sought after in industry.
Career opportunities
The railway construction industry offers a multitude of roles that will be open to you - from railway engineering to planning, project management and beyond. You could also look into working in consultancy for multidisciplinary organisations in both the private and public sectors.
Studying this MSc will build on the technical skills you have, whilst giving you the core foundations in a thriving industry and an extensive professional skill set in leading projects. It’s this combination of technical and professional skills and knowledge you’ll learn on this course that will attract employers in industry when you graduate.
