赫瑞瓦特大学-迪拜校区

This programme aims to develop the knowledge and skills of a bachelor’s-level graduate of Mechanical Engineering to master's level through advanced teaching, design work and research. It provides an opportunity for candidates from different engineering backgrounds to develop key mechanical engineering knowledge and skills required for their professional development. A key objective of the programme is to be an accredited route to becoming a chartered engineer.

This programme makes use of master's-level courses in Engineering Sciences and Manufacture and Design complemented with relevant specialist MSc courses offered by the Institute. Our industry partners have a growing need for an advanced mechanical engineering programme. This degree has been specifically developed to meet this need and to encourage students into further learning.

Course content

Semester One - Mandatory

B81PI Professional and Industrial Studies: Application of a combination of theoretical and practical methods to analyse and solve a technical and/or engineering problem. This may include the identification of a potential project and, where you have conducted appropriate research, to design and develop an engineering solution.

B51GS Specialist Engineering Technologies 1: This course on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) will develop your understanding and skills for computational simulations of fluid flow and heat transfer problems.

Optional (Choose two)

B51DG Engineering Design
In this course, students interact with companies in a real life small R&D project supplied by industrial partners. Working in teams, students manage the design of a prototype, product or system and interact with the industrial contact, putting into practice problem-solving skills from other engineering topics studied elsewhere in the programme.
B51EK Fluids 1
Fluid mechanics applied to aerodynamics, including ideal flows, boundary layers, and aerofoils and their use for analysis and design purposes.
B51EM Advanced Mechanics of Materials 1
Advanced classical mechanics including 3D stress and strain with particular application to thin walled vessels. Fatigue analysis and design for fatigue limit.
B51EO Dynamics 1
To provide students with a thorough understanding of vibration theory and an appreciation of its application in an engineering environment
B51EQ Thermodynamics 1
Thermodynamic cycles including heat engines and reverse heat engines and means of evaluating best performance.
B51GE Renewable Energy Technologies
An overview of renewable energy resources and to introduce current and emerging technologies to exploit renewable energy resources. Includes studying available or projected technologies for generation of electricity or to satisfy primary energy demand from renewable resources. These technologies are placed in context with environmental, political and economic constraints.

Semester Two – Mandatory

B81EZ Critical Analysis and Research Preparation
This course provides research training and addresses literature review skills, project planning, data analysis and presentation with a focus to critically discuss literature, and use data to support an argument.
B51HB Failure Accident Analysis
To familarise students with the potential causes of material, structure or component failure and framework under which a failure or forensic engineering investigation should be carried out. It also gives studies the opportunity to work case studies, through information-gathering to preparation of reports and an awareness of fire and explosion engineering.
