Program Overview
The Computational Engineering program equips graduate engineers with skills in designing modern computational products and systems. The one-year full-time or two to three-year part-time course covers fundamental theory and applications in engineering and science. Graduates specialize in computational engineering by selecting at least 15 ECTS from the Computational Engineering strand and completing a substantial project. The program offers direct entry to the Master's program, as well as parallel Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma entry routes.
Program Outline
Outline:
- The Computational Engineering program is a one-year full-time or two to three-year part-time course that provides graduate engineers with the skills to design modern computational products and systems.
- Graduates specialize in fundamental theory and applications relating to the generation, distribution, analysis, and information use in engineering/science.
- The program consists of taught modules worth 60 ECTS and a project worth 30 ECTS.
- Masters candidates complete a substantial project and submit a report which accounts for 30 ECTS.
- In addition to direct entry to the Masters program, parallel Postgraduate Certificate (30 ECTS) and Postgraduate Diploma (60 ECTS) entry routes are available for direct separate application.
- For students who successfully complete the certificate and diploma, there is an option to rescind these awards and apply to complete an M.Sc. in Computational Engineering.
- Part-time students may follow the staged award path over three years of study with a possible gap of up to one year in between.
Careers:
- Graduates have gained employment in industries including digital assistive technology (speech recognition and synthesis), automotive systems (remote sensing and cyber-physical control), economics (quantitative automated trading), entertainment (audio-video streaming and cinema visual effects), health (medical imaging), and computational science and engineering.
- Some graduates choose to undertake Ph.D. research.
