The Marine Engineering MSc is concerned with the design, analysis and operation of machinery and systems for merchant and naval ships and submarines. The programme covers a wide range of engineering subjects relevant to the development and procurement of marine engineering. The programme features two parallel streams; mechanical and electrical.

Students will learn about the analysis and design of propulsive systems and auxiliary equipment for the latest compliant marine vessel designs.  They will also study the use of computers in advanced engineering analysis. Students on the programme develop an understanding of elements of engineering. They also learn how to apply their knowledge in a systematic and effective manner, through both a group ship design exercise and an individual project.

Students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits. The programme offers two parallel streams, mechanical and electrical.

The programme consists of three core modules (45 credits), three options (45 credits), a ship design exercise (45 credits) and an independent project (45 credits).

Upon successful completion of 180 credits, you will be awarded a MSc in Marine Engineering (Mechanical and Electrical Options).
