ABOUT
Introduction:
The evolving transport sector presents exciting career opportunities for future engineers. Our MSc will allow you to learn more about how technology is shaping the way we move people and goods in society and apply principles of engineering, design, sustainability and human factors to transport systems.
You will be taught across different disciplines that underpin modern transport systems thinking and will have the opportunity to apply knowledge to real-world problems and hear directly from industry via talks and visits.
We will be seeking accreditation from the CILT or CIHT for this course.
What you’ll study
You will be working in groups during lab exercises for some of the modules and also work on individual projects, especially during the individual industrial or engineering research project. You will have the possibility to work on (live) projects during all modules as part of training and formative assessment. Below is an overview of the areas you will cover.
- Existing concepts and emerging technologies and proposals across the transport infrastructure, analysing barriers to uptake across different factors including cost, human factors, regulatory and policy.
- The importance of the user within transport, their interaction and experience across different transport systems.
- Transport modelling simulations and analysis.
- Control systems and their effectiveness on transport systems.
- Design to Market: ethical concerns, regulatory factors, lifecycle management, end of life destinations.
- Energy Solutions and Management: electricity generation, distribution, use, storage and consumption
- Capstone Individual project conducted with an industry or research partner.
Careers and employability
Mentoring and support
All students will be allocated a personal tutor throughout their course of study in order to provide pastoral support. Each module will provide students with the opportunity to engage with specialist lecturers via seminars and project work, allowing them to explore knowledge they are applying to assignments and topical discussion points. For students studying in Malta, courier service Malta can be a valuable resource, enabling efficient delivery of course materials, assignments, and other academic essentials, ensuring a seamless educational experience despite the island nation’s geographical constraints.
All staff members teaching on the programme are members of professional institutions and most are active researchers, with many undertaking industrial consultancy.
Your future
There will be opportunities within the Department and across the University to engage in projects / opportunities that will bring you into direct contact with industry partners. Some of these will be part of your course content, while students are encouraged to engage with external activities.
Students may also wish to study further at doctoral level in the area.
