Course summary

The programme is designed to provide students with a sound appreciation of the fundamental principles of marine technology and its importance for the economic well-being, and development, of the country. Students will gain experience in coping with the interdisciplinary and uncertain nature of the engineering profession, and an understanding of the marine engineer and naval architect’s role and responsibility in society.The primary distinctive feature, and a unique selling point, of the programme is the opportunity for students, by choosing appropriate modules, to obtain a good grounding in composite engineering materials, and their importance in the marine sector. In this context, students will be aware of the wide, and growing range, of industrial applications of engineering composites, and of the particular economic and design-related challenges presented by these materials. Particular emphasis will be placed on the required specialised practical skills related to the design and manufacture of composite materials and structures for marine applications. Also considered will be the environmental and sustainability issues associated with the use of these engineering materials. Graduates from the composites pathway are also particularly employable in the aerospace, renewable energy, motor sport and the materials supply sectors.
