Our programmes are highly demanding and attract high flying graduates who want to go into careers in senior management and consulting. We aim to provide the opportunity not only to study a full range of relevant subjects and techniques but also to develop the professional skills necessary for a successful future career.
Daniel Thomas, MSc Engineering Management 2012
"I was attracted to the taught master's programmes in the School of Mechanical Engineering for the purpose of expanding my business acumen after completing an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering. I have just recently been granted an advisory role with Ernst & Young to work with financial services organisations in dealing with their technology implementation across the supply chain. The MSc in Engineering Management has further deepened my commercial awareness and without it I don't think I would've been as fortunate in securing a role in consulting with a 'Big 4' professional services firm."
