AEROSPACE ENGINEERING MSc FT PT

CHEMICAL ENGINEERING MSc FT This course is tailored to suit graduates interested in both advanced research and/or a career in the process engineering sector. The course extends subjects typically studied at bachelor’s level with focus upon important process engineering themes, such as separation processes, fluid systems, mass transfer and material properties with a strong emphasis on water processing technologies and advanced aspects of process design and simulation. As a student on the master's course in Chemical Engineering, you will have the opportunity to advance your technical knowledge via lecture- based modules and further develop critical analysis competencies through both individual research and group design projects. The course is accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE). Modules typically include: • Complex Fluids and Rheology • Desalination • Entrepreneurship for Engineers • Environmental Analysis and Legislation • Membrane Technology • Nanoscale Structures and Devices

TAUGHT COURSES Entry Requirements

This course prepares students for the design, analysis, testing and flight of the full range of aerospace vehicles, including propeller-driven and jet-powered planes, helicopters and gliders. Students on the course will gain hands-on experience through access to one of the world’s most advanced engineering flight simulators housed within the College of Engineering. The course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), and the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED). Modules typically include: • Advanced Aerodynamics • Advanced Airframe Structure • Composite Materials • Finite Element Computational Analysis • Flight Dynamics and Control • Numerical Methods for Partial
