MSc in Advanced Engineering Materials, University of Limerick

This programme aims to develop graduates with extensive knowledge in materials analysis, characterisation, Materials Science, Processing, and Surface Technology. It covers high strength materials used in the aero-industry, techniques for materials and coatings selection, along with methods employed by engineering consultants. The course prepares students for careers in manufacturing sectors, consultancy, or further study at the PhD level. It involves analytical techniques, structure of materials, advanced processing methods, and covers management systems relevant to manufacturing. An integral part of the course is a research project that uses state-of-the-art instrumentation to generate high-impact research or intellectual property.
