What you will study
If you’re a graduate of an engineering, science or related discipline, our unique Process Systems Engineering MSc will train you in general and specialist process systems engineering subjects.
Throughout your course, you’ll be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to prepare you for the systems challenges you’ll face in industry or academia upon graduation. Our programme will widen your understanding of the fundamental concepts of process systems engineering.
You’ll also be provided with a thorough grounding in current technologies and trends, preparing you for a rewarding career or further research.
Facilities
You’ll have access to a wide range of relevant software needed to support your dissertation project. In recent years, projects have included the design of various knowledge-based and business systems on the internet, the application of optimisation algorithms, and semantic web applications.
If you choose to pursue a technology-based project, numerous laboratory facilities across the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the University are also available to you, such as the Fluor Pilot Plant Facility, a control and robotics facility, and signal processing labs.
The work related to your dissertation can often be carried out in parallel with, and in support of, ongoing research. Some of our graduates have carried on their MSc research to a PhD course.
