Engineering (K49) (Taught)

Designed for engineering graduates, this postgraduate certificate will broaden and deepen your understanding of professional engineering. You’ll explore how components are made, from casting, forming and joining to additive manufacturing and surface engineering, and examine how materials and design choices affect performance. You’ll also learn how to use computer-based modelling and analysis techniques to investigate complex engineering problems and apply finite element analysis to real-life engineering contexts. By the end, you’ll have gained advanced technical knowledge and strengthened your problem-solving, decision-making and communication skills, preparing you for senior engineering roles and your next step towards becoming a Chartered Engineer.

Key features of the course

• Build professional engineering skills in finite element analysis

• Explore materials, manufacturing and design-informed process selection

• Apply modelling and simulation to real engineering problems

• Support your continued professional development and progress towards Chartered Engineer status

• Top up to our Postgraduate Diploma or MSc in Engineering

Course Modules

To gain this qualification, you’ll need 60 credits. You’ll study two compulsory 30-credit modules, developing professional engineering skills in finite element analysis, materials, manufacturing and design.
