Our Advanced Mechanical Engineering MSc enables students to develop the versatility and depth of knowledge to deal with new and unusual challenges across a wide range of disciplines, within engineering and beyond. Within the School of Engineering, teaching is underpinned by research in automotive systems, biomedical engineering, electrical and thermal energy systems, materials and modelling, precision engineering and measurement, solid and fluid mechanics.
Core modules will provide advanced knowledge in fundamental topics of mechanical engineering and will also allow you to develop skills required to execute engineering projects involving multiple stakeholders. Optional modules allow you to select complementary topics that are of particular interest to you.
You will also complete an individual research project: an in-depth experimental, theoretical or computational investigation of a topic chosen by you in conjunction with your academic supervisor.
Previous graduates have gone on to work for companies such as Arup, Rolls-Royce and Siemens. Others have chosen to continue their studies by doing a PhD at Warwick or elsewhere.
A minimum 2:1 undergraduate UK Honours degree or equivalent international qualification, in an engineering, physical sciences or mathematical subject.
Please note that applicants will need post A2 Level (or equivalent) knowledge in Mathematics, covering topics such as linear algebra, calculus and analysis, and including differential equations. This could be gained through a mathematics module taken as part of an undergraduate course. It is expected that candidates have a good understanding of these topics at the start of their MSc studies.
You can see how your current degree score or GPA equates to the British system in our Study pages in the equivalent scores table.
We are willing to consider applications from students with lower qualifications on a case-by-case basis, particularly when the applicant can evidence relevant employment, practical experience or strong performance in undergraduate modules related to their proposed postgraduate course of study.
To ensure you have the essential foundations for the course, and depending on your overall academic profile, we may require you to take a mathematical skills test.
