Taught Postgraduate

Overview

The Department offers three taught postgraduate programmes leading to the degrees of MSc(Eng) in Mechanical Engineering (ME), MSc(Eng) in Building Services Engineering(BSE) and MSc (Energy Engineering).

The aim of the ME programme is to provide advanced postgraduate education in the fields of energy and power; environmental engineering; material technology; theoretical mechanics; marine and offshore engineering; and computer aided design and manufacturing to graduates in engineering or related science.

The BSE programme provides advanced education in the fields of design, management and operation of modern building services engineering systems to practising engineers or related professionals who wish to acquire new knowledge and keep abreast of technical developments in the building services industry.

The Energy Engineering programme aims to provide state-of-the-art and cutting edge technologies to practicing engineers so that they can implement them in their works. The programme is jointly organized by the EEE and the ME departments both of which are in the forefront as regards research and consultancy in the areas of energy engineering.

All the above programmes are offered in both part-time and full-time modes. For the part-time mode of study, the curriculum shall take not less than two and not more than three academic years of study.
