Marine Technology

Start your journey to becoming a qualified professional marine engineer with this four year integrated masters. Marine technologists are engineers focused on engineering for life at sea. As problem solvers, engineers design, create and use tools in every industry from nanotech to agritech. Develop skills in the fundamentals of engineering, marine engineering and naval architecture, and use laboratory sessions, taught by enthusiastic staff with strong industry links, to reinforce your learning.<br/><br/><br/>* **Optional with composites pathway available.** In year 4, you have the option to choose a specialist with composites pathway, which allows you to study the design and manufacture of specialist materials. Should you wish to choose this route, ‘with composites’ will appear as a named specialism on your degree certificate to acknowledge your specialism in this area.<br/><br/><br/>* **Take your studies a step further.** This four year integrated masters programme takes your learning and expertise development all the way to masters level.<br/><br/><br/>* **Make use of cutting-edge facilities.** Students in engineering, science and the arts have access to a range of specialist equipment and innovative laboratories in our new engineering and design facility. <br/><br/><br/>* **Join the upper ranks.** In the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), also known as the Shanghai Ranking, we are eighth out of 50, and the highest ranked UK university, for Marine/Ocean Engineering.<br/><br/><br/>* **Open the door to a successful future.** With starting salaries from £23,000, our graduates have gone on to work for Hoare Lea, Babcock Marine, Becton Dickinson, e2v, Edwards, the Shaw Group and the Ministry of Defence.<br/><br/><br/>* **Define yourself with an IMechE accredited degree.** The course has been designed to fully satisfy the educational base for Chartered Engineer (CEng).<br/><br/><br/>* **Be flexible.** Our combined first year allows you to switch to mechanical engineering or civil engineering in line with your career ambitions.<br/><br/><br/>* **Be unique.** Our courses are the only ones in the country to have a named with composites pathway; choosing this will allow you to stand out in the job market.<br/><br/><br/>* **Learn hands-on** with the latest industry-standard software, laboratory sessions and practical classes.<br/><br/><br/>* **Put learning into practice** by taking a paid year in industry - many of our students receive job offers or sponsorship as a result of their placements.<br/><br/><br/>* **Go on to thrive** in sectors as diverse as vessel design, naval architecture, ship safety, propeller design and manufacturing or engine energy efficiency.<br/>
