A recognised, valued and unique qualification.
The Master of Science is an internationally recognised and valued qualification that indicates both a wide-ranging knowledge of materials and a strong personal motivation to progress in materials science.
At the University of Surrey, we have created a unique programme to enable students to tailor a postgraduate qualification to their particular interests and career requirements. The highly flexible and far-ranging syllabus benefits people at all stages of their careers who either want to acquire a full MSc qualification or to undertake individual modules as discrete short courses.
Advanced Materials MSc
The degree of MSc is achieved upon successful completion of a combination of modules taken from short courses, independent study, guided study programmes, lecture courses and project work. It can be studied on a part-time or full-time basis.
Who are our postgraduate students?
The programmes is designed to benefit people from a variety of backgrounds. Students come either from undergraduate study or from industry and business, at different stages of their careers.
What are the benefits?
The modular MSc is an opportunity to improve your job satisfaction, your skills and your career prospects. There are benefits for both you and your company; the company benefits from your increasing skills and knowledge of materialsyou gain a recognised qualification and improve your promotion prospects and the mutual commitment also improves job security while fostering employee loyalty.
The comprehensive and advanced nature of the course material produces graduates with a wide and thorough knowledge of materials science, a fact that is recognised by the award of the MSc degree. Both the expertise gained and the motivation required are positive factors for employers. Programmes of this kind are becoming increasingly important as emphasis is placed on career development and continuing education. The courses will also be seen by employers as a means of meeting their specific skills needs and as a way of implementing a programme of structured career development for their employees.
