Course summary

The MSc in Sustainable Engineering is designed for graduates who wish to deepen thorough knowledge of the subject through a one-year taught programme that culminates in a supervised, research-based dissertation. With a growing world population, demands to meet the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and in recognition of the climate crisis affecting the planet, engineers have an increasing responsibility to be well-versed in issues concerning sustainability. This programme will provide you with the theoretical and practical knowledge to create and maintain a more sustainable world within your chosen area of engineering. This degree combines foundational knowledge and skills in sustainable engineering with a specialism in one of three pathways:

  • MSc Sustainable Engineering: Civil Engineering and the Built Environment
  • MSc Sustainable Engineering: Renewable Energy
  • MSc Sustainable Engineering: Product Development and Advanced Manufacturing
A unique feature of our programme is that the dissertations are researched and written in groups, with each individual student making their own contribution. As such, you will decide on the topic with your group members and under the guidance of staff. This approach of working with other engineers, who may be on different pathways, reflects real-life engineering.
