Master of Science - Systems Engineering

Loughborough University's Master of Science in Systems Engineering has been designed in collaboration with industry to meet the challenge of interdependence between sophisticated engineered systems of all kinds. Advanced modelling, simulation and interactive visualisation tools and techniques will enable students to gain greater understanding of the performance, behaviour and emergent properties of advanced technology and complex systems. Students will have access to advanced visualisation techniques to enhance models and simulations of real-world systems, including cockpit simulators to study pilot behaviour toward stress and the impact this has upon their mental agility.

Collaborating with over twenty industry leaders, the university know the systems design skills and enterprise knowledge they develop in their graduates are directly deployable in the workplace, making this a highly relevant qualification for those seeking employment, and those already working in, complex systems technology.

During the summer, students may be given the exciting opportunity of a micro-placement project. These placements are arranged in collaboration with the existing industrial partners and alumni contacts and aim to provide them with hands-on practical experience, working on appealing projects relevant to their Master of Science degree.
