About Postgraduate Engineering Studies

Engineering studies is a broad term to encompass the wide variety of engineering and engineering management disciplines that can be studied at postgraduate level. Underpinning everything from buildings to industrial processes, vehicles and software, engineering has endless opportunities.

Postgraduate students will be able to build on their undergraduate studies and focus on a particular engineering discipline, developing a deep understanding of their area and building sought-after management and strategic skills. Careers across commercial and industrial sectors, as well as academia and the public sector, can be found.

There are more than 280 engineering studies courses available at postgraduate level, including taught and research master’s, as well as doctoral study pathways.

What to expect

In most cases you will need to have a relevant undergraduate degree or equivalent qualification. You may also need some related professional experience for some courses.

Specific modules will vary depending on the course you choose but some common topics covered in this field include engineering project management, biochemical engineering, aerospace engineering, chemical engineering, materials engineering, mechanical engineering or electrical engineering.

A postgraduate qualification will help you secure or develop your engineering career. You might become an engineering project manager or engineering consultant in your chosen area of engineering, or you might use it to go into teaching or research.
