Advanced Mechanical Engineering MSc

This course gives you advanced mechanical engineering knowledge that goes beyond undergraduate level and prepares you for senior technical and professional roles. You will study at the University of Salford within a programme designed to support Chartered Engineer progression and reflect real industry practice. This course is different because it brings together advanced computational methods, energy and sustainability, control and measurement, and dynamic system analysis within a single, coherent structure. You will develop strong capability in CFD, FEA, control engineering, and vibration, alongside professional skills expected of modern engineers. A defining feature is the Advanced Mechanical Group Design Project. You will work in teams to design, model, and evaluate a complex engineering system from concept to validation. This mirrors industrial workflows and builds leadership, collaboration, and systems thinking. You will also complete a substantial individual dissertation, applying advanced methods to a research or industry-relevant problem. 

Throughout the course, you will use industry-standard software, laboratory facilities, and professional engineering frameworks. This course suits you if you want to move into advanced engineering roles in energy, manufacturing, automotive, or research, with the confidence to tackle complex, multidisciplinary problems
