Course Summary

Our master's degrees in advanced mechanical engineering science combine the traditional aspects of mechanical engineering with interdisciplinary subjects so you can specialise in a career you want. You'll be exposed to modern issues in advanced mechanical engineering science.

You’ll learn the fundamental science, methods, analysis and engineering applications to start a career in mechatronic engineering. You'll learn to use advanced electrical systems and understand the impact and use of control systems, instrumentation and sensors. And have the opportunity to design robots and build machines as part of your study.

This course is ideal if you are an engineering, mathematics or physical science graduate who wants to be challenged academically.

Assessment methods (Outcome qualification level): Examinations, presentations, coursework and dissertation. Professional bodies: Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)| Engineering Council | European Accreditation of Engineering Programmes (EAEP).

Modules

This module is to understand the physics of active control. Active control is a method for attenuating undesirable disturbances by introducing secondary sources, whose outputs interfere with the disturbance destructively. Techniques for modelling and analysis of active control of sound and vibration problems will be presented. The feasibility of active control will be demonstrated in a variety of industrial applications.
