Master of Engineering in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering
This Masters Level 9 Programme aims at enabling graduates to specialise in the widely established area of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering or to broaden their knowledge from their undergraduate studies.
This Programme introduces the use of advanced Computer-Aided Engineering tools and, by experiencing these advanced techniques and software, the graduate will gain a vital edge. It allows the candidate to keep pace with the rapidly changing manufacturing and design sectors. In addition, students can opt for a specialist Major in Sustainable Systems/Energy or Biomedical Engineering.
Major 1 - Sustainable Systems/Energy
There is a growing international market for engineers in Sustainable Energy and Development, Eco-innovation, Resource Efficiency and Cleantech sectors. There are lots of career opportunities in the growing fields of Energy/Renewable Energy (wind, wave, solar, biomass etc.), a national priority area for Ireland.
Major 2 - Biomedical Engineering
This discipline integrates the necessary aspects of biology and medicine with the technical engineering aspects required to engineer medical devices. The world of medicine is evolving and expanding rapidly, with new treatments and new diseases appearing all the time. As Ireland is a major player in Bioengineering, this Major provides graduates with specialisms required by industry.
There are three exit routes: MEng, Graduate Diploma and Graduate Certificate.
The MEng Programme is offered in full- and part-time, on-campus and guided-study modes.
