About this Course

The Mechanical Engineering Design with Management MSc aims to develop your academic knowledge and technical engineering skills with the integration of creative, problem-solving design elements within a business context.

Mechanical Engineering Design incorporates designing complex systems in order to develop and evaluate the design performance using technical engineering knowledge and skills, with the aim to continuously improve the product and manufacturing techniques.

Mechanical Engineering Designers are responsible for the design process including the concept of designs, analysis of existing products, production of prototypes for product testing and identification of new systems, processes and feasibility to drive quality, efficiency and save costs.

Mechanical Design Engineers are in demand by employers as they embrace challenges, can solve problems effectively, and have strong technical knowledge – as well as excellent communication and leadership skills.

This MSc will enable you to develop your knowledge and technical skills by combining the numerical, analytical and scientific principles of Mechanical Engineering Design with an in-depth understanding of management and business acumen to master’s degree level.
