MSc Engineering Management

The University of Wolverhampton is investing over £10 million in new engineering facilities — a direct response to the national and regional shortage of graduate-qualified engineers, and to genuine demand for the skills this course develops.

Studying at our Springfield Site puts you at the centre of one of the UK's most important manufacturing and engineering regions, with strong links to local and national employers across the West Midlands.

You'll also benefit from:

• Specialist engineering equipment, including a design and visualisation facility modelled on industry best practice, an engine test facility, a composites laboratory, 3D printing facilities, an electronics and telecommunications laboratory, a metrology laboratory and a materials testing laboratory.
• Employability workshops and awards built into your wider student experience, run by the Careers, Employability and Success team.
• Engineering ‘Club Activities’, including the IMechE Formula Student team, the Human Powered Flight Club, the Flight Simulator Club and the Formula Renault 2L Racing Team — open to any student willing to get involved.
• A university recognised for student experience, including a further rise in National Student Survey results and recognition at the WhatUni Student Choice Awards.

By the end of the course, you'll be able to:

• Apply advanced engineering, mathematical and scientific principles to solve complex, real-world problems.
• Analyse complex problems and reach substantiated conclusions, using data and engineering judgement even where information is incomplete or uncertain.
• Select and apply computational and analytical modelling techniques, while understanding their limitations.
• Critically evaluate technical literature and other sources of information to solve complex problems.
• Design original solutions that balance business, user and societal needs — including health & safety, sustainability, and industry codes of practice.
• Evaluate the environmental and societal impact of a product or process across its full lifecycle, and act to minimise adverse impacts.
• Work effectively as an individual and as a member or leader of a team, evaluating your own and your team's performance.
• Communicate complex engineering matters clearly and persuasively to both technical and non-technical audiences.

These fees relate to new entrants only for the academic year indicated for entry onto the course, any subsequent years of study may be subject to an annual increase, usually in line with inflation.

Applicants should normally be educated to Honours Degree level, with a minimum of a 2:2, in Mechanical Engineering, Technology or a closely related discipline.

RPL will be granted, if appropriate, as part of the admissions process and then ratified by the FSE RPL committee. All non-standard applicants to this course will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. In this instance, substantial professional experience can substitute for graduate status. All first-degree qualifications in General Engineering and Physical Sciences (BEng and BSc) will be considered.
