Swansea University Postgraduate Prospectus 2021

• Pollutant Transport by Groundwater Flows • Polymers: Properties and Design • Principles of Nanomedicine • Water and Wastewater Engineering CIVIL ENGINEERING MSc FT The course provides training in civil engineering analysis and design, particularly in modelling and analysis techniques. You will be provided with practical computer experience through the use of computational techniques, using modern software, to provide a solution to a range of current practical civil engineering applications enabling you to apply the approach with confidence in an industrial context. This course is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM). The JBM is composed of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), the Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE), the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation (CIHT), and the Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE), and the Permanent Way Institution (PWI). Modules typically include: • Advanced Structural Analysis • Coastal Processes and Engineering • Computational Plasticity • Dynamics and Transient Analysis • Entrepreneurship for Engineers • Finite Element Computational Analysis • Flood Risk Management • Fluid-Structure Interaction • Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations • R eservoir Modelling and Simulation COMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING MSc FT PT On this course you will be provided with an in-depth understanding of the technology and architecture of

computer communications, photonics and telecommunication networks, wireless telecommunications and related wireless information technologies. The course includes the essential element of modern optical communication systems based on single mode optical fibres from the core to the access, evaluating bandwidth- rich contemporary approaches. You will be introduced to technologies underlying the compressions and transmission of digital video over networking platforms, gain knowledge on the channel models and associated impairments that typically limit the performance of wireless systems. You will also learn to design optimum digital communication receivers for some basic communications channel models. This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). Modules typically include: • Communication Skills for Research Engineers • Digital Communications • Entrepreneurship for Engineers • Lasers and Applications • Micro and Nano Electro-Mechanical Systems • Optical Fibre Communications • Strategic Project Planning • Wireless Communications COMPUTATIONAL MECHANICS MSc FT This is a two-year postgraduate programme and is organised between Swansea University and Universitat Politcnica de Catalunya (Barcelona, Spain) in cooperation with the International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE, Spain). You will receive deep multidisciplinary training in the application of the finite element method, as well as • RF and Microwaves • Signals and Systems

state-of-the-art numerical and computational techniques to solve and simulate challenging problems. Your general knowledge of computational mechanics theory will be developed alongside an appreciation of computational simulation in industry and academia. Training is also provided in the development of new software for the improved simulation of current engineering problems. The MSc course is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM). The JBM is composed of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), the Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE), the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation (CIHT), and the Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE). Modules typically include: • Advanced Fluid Mechanics • Communication Skills in a Foreign Language (French/ German/Spanish) • Continuum Mechanics • Dynamics and Transient Analysis • Entrepreneurship for Engineers • Finite Element Computational Analysis • Fluid-Structure Interaction • Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics • Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations • R eservoir Modelling and Simulation COMPUTATIONAL ENGINEERING MSc FT PT We have long been at the forefront of computational research, and have gained a significant international profile as one of the key international centres for research and training in computational mechanics and engineering. Using mathematical modelling as the basis, computational methods provide procedures which, with the aid of the computer, allow complex problems to be solved.
