General information
The Marine and Offshore Engineering MSc degree programme will give you a range of engineering skills and techniques appropriate for companies working in the marine and offshore field.
The skills acquired during this programme will allow you to make an immediate contribution to a company's capability and operation, and to ultimately progress into senior management positions. This programme capitalises on the demand for highly qualified postgraduates and maintains LJMU’s longstanding reputation for meeting the needs of the maritime industry. The programme covers:
- safety analysis
- design engineering
- structural analysis
- maritime law and insurance
- quality systems
- alternative energy systems
The Universitys' expanding and internationally acclaimed marine and offshore engineering research underpins the programme, ensuring the curriculum reflects contemporary practice and thinking within the sector. Current research activities focus on Marine and Offshore Engineering, Maritime and offshore Safety Analysis, and Marine Design Engineering. In addition, collaboration with industry and knowledge transfer is an important aspect of research within the School of Engineering, Technology and Maritime Operations.
Modules
