The School of Engineering is delighted to announce the launch of three new Masters commencing in September 2024. The new programmes build on the School's strengths in energy, sustainability, robotics and AI to provide students with the technical skills and knowledge to make a real impact in these fields.
MSc Robotics and Artificial Intelligence
The MSc Robotics and Artificial Intelligence is aimed at students with a background in either engineering or computer science who are interested in pursuing a career in the rapidly growing field of robotics and AI. This programme covers topics including robot manipulator arms and mobile robots, bioinspiration, machine (deep) learning, simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM), swarm robotics, computer vision and AI. Students also gain hands-on experience through practical projects and lab work in our dedicated robotics laboratory.
The MSc Robotics and Artificial Intelligence will available to study full time on campus from September 2024. The programme will also have an intake in January 2025. Find out more about the programme or register your interest here.
MSc Subsurface Energy Engineering
The MSc Subsurface Energy Engineering builds on the University of Aberdeen's long track record of teaching and research in energy, to provide advanced training in the design and use of available subsurface resources in conjunction with low-carbon energy sources for achieving a sustainable energy future. Students will learn the fundamentals of fluid transport processes in the subsurface with applications to hydrogen transportation and storage, geothermal resources and Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS). Also, uniquely at Aberdeen we also cover the important area of sustainable mining for critical energy transition metals, such as lithium and zinc, as well as the subsequent processing, recycling and reuse of these materials.
The MSc Subsurface Energy Engineering will be available to study full time on campus and part time online from September 2024. The programme will also have an intake in January 2025. Find out more about the programme or register your interest here.
MSc Sustainable Product, Process and Energy Engineering
The MSc Sustainable Product, Process and Energy Engineering has been developed in response to the growing demands on industry to address sustainability. The programme focuses on the use of renewable resources, in particular biomass and carbon dioxide, to produce energy, chemicals, materials and other products in a sustainable way. Students will cover energy from biomass and energy conversion and storage, the production of chemicals from biomass, biorefinery – the production of chemicals from carbon dioxide, sustainable chemical processes and biotechnology for industrial applications.
The MSc Sustainable Product, Process and Energy Engineering will be available to study full time on campus and part time online from September 2024. The programme will also have an intake in January 2025. Find out more about the programme or register your interest here.
