General requirements
A UK 2:1 honours degree, or its international equivalent, in Mechanical, Manufacturing or Industrial Engineering.
Competence in programming is essential. During your degree you must have completed a programming course in a high-level language (such as C++, C#, Java, Python or equivalent).
If you apply with an academic background in another field you may be considered if you have completed the equivalent of 40 credits of courses related to manufacturing technology. Your marks for these courses must be equivalent to UK 2:1 as a minimum.
Examples of courses relevant to this degree are:
- manufacturing systems
- advanced manufacturing technology
- industrial systems engineering
- industrial information systems
- industrial automation
This requirement may be partially met by relevant industrial experience. Applicants with non-standard backgrounds may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
