Introduction

The MSc program in Advanced Mechanical Engineering builds on the knowledge, understanding, and skills acquired at the BSc level, and aims to expand the horizons of the students and enable them to become leading engineers capable of meeting the demands of modern-day industry or potential researchers.

The program also includes a directed research and/or design component in the form of two connected modules (MSc Thesis I and MSc Thesis II) that expose students to the modern trends and developments in the field and are intended to consolidate and strengthen their research and innovation capacities and other related skills. Although those two modules are concerned with a single project problem, they are structured to extend over two semesters to ease their management and oversight.

Additionally, it must be also highlighted that the program is designed to impart students with many communication and judgment skills. This will be evident in the modules that involve project or research components. Many modules require students to communicate through different modalities such as writing reports and papers, giving presentations, working in a team, answering questions, and taking part in debates. Through components that involve teamwork, students will develop leadership skills and will have to exercise critical thinking and judgment.
