You will investigate areas like thermodynamics and kinetics, mechanical performance, and defects and failure analysis. You will also learn how to use advanced characterisation techniques, modelling and simulation to optimise and design metals for specific uses such as high-temperatures and extreme stress.
Methods you will explore include additive manufacturing and high-pressure die casting. This specialisation includes projects with real case studies drawn directly from relevant industry partners like the Volvo group, and will prepare you for roles in production, industrial research and development, or in academia.
