Composites Research project Metallic Materials or You will complete an eight-month supervised Ceramics research project. The project may be The MSc by Research in Advanced Aerospace Materials Engineering is an industrially relevant programme, developed at a time of great change within the aerospace industry. Higher operating temperatures along with a push towards a more electric engine to improve aeroengine efficiency, drive down cost and the movement of the supply chain up the skills ladder are all driving dramatic change. This is creating demand for new skills which this programme uniquely addresses. Duration and study options The degree can be taken in a standard 12month full-time structure or up to 60 months part-time or by distance-learning. Scholarships There are School scholarships available for this research degree. UK/EU students can be awarded up to 100% of their tuition fee, and Overseas students can be awarded a parttuition fee scholarship. undertaken within the School of Materials or the School of Mechanical Aerospace and Civil Engineering at The University of Manchester, or within industry, research organisation or a collaborating university. Students who have been in attendance for the first semester may in special circumstances carry out their research overseas but distance learning students may only do so within the UK. CPD / individual units You have the option to undertake individual units as a standalone course, and in some areas it is possible to undertake a one-week discrete CPD module.
