Course Details

Our courses in mechanical engineering are made up of lectures, laboratory sessions, workshops and design classes. They cover the core engineering science and design skills needed to give students a solid foundation in this subject. 

The Department of Mechanical, Materials and Manufacturing Engineering (M3) offers students a sound theoretical grounding in our labs and workshops. Students will conduct investigations to turn designs into reality through extensive hands-on learning using Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) and design projects.

Why choose this course?

  • Our Mechanical Engineering programme was the first established amongst foreign universities in Malaysia. Heavy investment has allowed course topics such as aerospace and automotive related modules to be developed. Our teaching facilities are well established and we provide diversified teaching expertise throughout the course. 
  • Students on this course are able to access our well-equipped workshop facilities allowing individual yet extensive hands-on practices and the mastering of machining skills (welding, milling, etc). Our programme is proudly awarded with a 6-year accreditation status presented by the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) Malaysia. This is the longest of any university in Malaysia. In addition, our programme is also accredited by the Malaysian Quality Agency (MQA), the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) UK and the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) UK.

Course content

  • The MSc Mechanical Engineering consists of 70 credits of core modules and 50 credits of optional taught modules, along with a 60-credit summer individual project often linked with industrially sponsored research. Projects include experimental analyses, design oriented studies and the development of mathematical or computational models. The compulsory modules will teach you about the latest, cutting-edge developments in engineering from our world-leading research groups. You will also be able to choose from a number of optional modules which will allow you to focus your studies on your areas of interest.

  • The course covers diversified areas of Mechanical Engineering upholding the profession of Mechanical Engineering as one of the most stable worldwide. Our graduates are employed in various industrial sectors including Aerospace, Automotive, Manufacturing, Power Generation, Bioengineering, Electrical and Electronic Systems, Renewable Energy, Nanotechnology, Oil and Gas Industries and Environmental Protection. Some graduates progress to postgraduate PhD levels both locally and overseas and are currently employed as postdoctoral researchers and academics in universities. Many of our graduates have developed themselves into managerial positions and/or achieved Professional/Chartered Engineer status.

Career Advice

  • The department offers career advise through personal tutorial programmes and industrial training programmes. In addition there are various opportunities and activities for students to engage with our alumni, industrial partners, guest lecturers, industrial visits and career events organised by the department. The school also works hand-in-hand with the Career Advisory Service (CAS) department which is based at the University to provide students with essential resources and guidance for career choices offering many opportunities to develop the skills needed to plan and manage your future. The CAS will work with you to improve and maximise your employability skills. As well as providing essential resources and guidance, they will also assist you with job/course applications, facilitate searches for appropriate work experience placements and connect you to a wide range of prospective employers or training opportunities.

Job Prospects

  • Our graduates will leave the University of Nottingham Malaysia ‘career-ready’ for employment in various industrial sectors such as Aerospace, Automotive, Manufacturing, Power Generation, Bioengineering, Electrical and Electronic Systems, Renewable Energy, Nanotechnology, Oil and Gas Industries and Environmental Protection. Engineering and technology sectors are said worldwide to be in a ‘skills crisis’ meaning this is a perfect time to be entering this professional environment. Companies are constantly on the lookout for qualified mechanical engineers who are in high demand to meet the challenges of our ever- evolving engineering world. Job titles often include Mechanical Engineer, Product Design Engineer, Aerospace Engineer and Application Engineer.
