“I’m enjoying the variation that my course is giving me, as I am able to get a taste of the many facets in Robotics and its overlapping technologies.”

Carafino, Robotics MSc

Our Engineering with Management MSc will prepare you for a management pathway in engineering. You'll study key areas of operations and project management, which will equip you with the skills of how to use mathematical modelling and optimisation methods to solve a range of problems. You will also gain an understanding of project planning approaches, monitoring and operations strategy. There are also opportunities to explore a wide variety of optional modules, which means you'll have the freedom to explore your interests.  You will complete the course in one year, studying from September to September and taking a combination of required and optional modules totalling 180 credits, including 60 credits that will come from an individual project.
