M ASTER OF SCIENCE (MECHANICAL ENGINEERING)

The programm e is intended to provide students with an advanced knowledge and understanding of the stateof-the-art in one or m ore of the m any areas of mechanical engineering. Its unique balance of rigorous
fundamentals and engaging real-world applications in the M.Sc. (Mechanical Engineering) programme train the
students to be analytical thinkers who will successfully integrate and s ynthesize the theory and new
knowledge. The com bination of expertise in research and in engineering consultancy in the Department of
Mechanical Engineering helps to give this M.Sc. (Mechanical Engineering) course its unique features. The
success of this M.Sc. (Mechanical Engineering) course can be m easured by the large proportion of its
graduates who find appropriate and challenging posts in industry at hom e and abroad.
To graduate, a student needs to accum ulate a total of no less than 40 Modular Credits (MCs) and obtain a
minimum Cum ulative Average Point (CAP) of 3.0 (equivalent to the Grade of B-) for the best modules
equivalent of 40 MCs (inclusive of foundation/core modules, where required). Each graduate module of 39
lecture hours is usually assigned 4 MCs. Hence, in general, a student needs to com plete 10 m odules chosen
from the list of m odules. (A maximum of 2 approved external modules are usually allowed.)
A candidate m ay read for a M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering with or without a m ajor or area of specialisation.
Currently, students must complete at least 5 modules from the core module list for the specialization in order
to graduate with the specialisation.
The Specialisations currently available are as follows:
1. Computation and Modelling
2. Manufacturing Technology & Autom ation
Starting Semester 1, AY2016/2017, t he Specialisations available are as follows:
1. Computation and Modelling (Table 1)
(At least 5 modules (20MCs) from the revised module list, each with a grade of at least B-.This will be applicable
to new students matriculating in Semester 1, AY2016/2017 onwards only.)

2. Advanced Manufacturing (Table 2)
