Overview
The Design Engineering with Advanced Product Development degree at The University of Strathclyde will provide thorough training in design theories and process models, design methods, design techniques, computer supported product modelling, analysis, evaluation and physical rapid prototyping of a design solution. In addition to the enterprise skills necessary to launch brand new products to market.
The Advanced Product Development stream is designed for those who wish to enhance their technical knowledge and practical design skills through the application of state-of-the-art manufacture to practical design settings through the specialisation in advanced materials and production technology, product design techniques and engineering risk management.
Careers
Design engineers use technical knowledge, mathematical and design skills to create innovative solutions to problems across a diverse range of industries.
This course will propel your design engineering career forward because it will:
- provide you with the knowledge and skills to develop your own abilities to tackle more complex roles
- enhance your CV with a competitive edge through gaining a Masters
- develop industry experience through the Postgraduate Group Project module which provides you with first hand industry experience which can be used as example work during any future interviews
