Course Summary

This master's covers the core subjects of Maritime Engineering Science for both the design and analysis of marine craft and structures within the marine environment. You can choose from five pathways, each covers a broad context alongside an in-depth specialisation of your choice. On this pathway, you'll study the theoretical and computational aspects of fluid behaviour and its interaction with structures, core to the fundamentals of engineering in the maritime environment. This course is ideal if you are a graduate or professional with an engineering, scientific or mathematical background, and want to pursue a career in the maritime sector. Specialist knowledge of the discipline isn't essential, as we'll provide you with an introductory module to the fundamentals of Ship Science.
