From the manufacturing of lightweight, sustainable and durable materials, to revolutionising additive manufacturing, nanotechnology is shaping our future. When you’ve completed this specialist Master’s, you’ll have the technical skills and practical experience to design, and manufacture, materials and solutions at the nano and micro scales.
Designed and delivered by UCL Mechanical Engineering, this one-year MSc course will get you industry-ready for a career as a manufacturing, materials and design engineer.
You’ll put your learning into practice on every module of this course, translating your theoretical studies into concrete practical experience through lab work, design activities or specially designed industry-relevant manufacturing challenges.
Working in the world-class engineering facilities at our purpose-built UCL East Campus on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, you’ll learn how to achieve results in environments designed to replicate industrial settings. You’ll collaborate regularly with external industry partners, some of whom may also supervise your group project.
A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard.

This course’s emphasis on practical skill-building will provide you with valuable evidence of your technical prowess and ability to design, characterise, test and apply nano-engineered materials and manufacturing techniques.
Your specialism will also qualify you to work in any industry that uses, designs or manufactures materials. This robust technical background will be supplemented with extensive training in practical problem solving and real-world application, along with an understanding of commercialisation, sustainability and how processes can be scaled to meet changing demands.
Your combination of in-demand technical and commercial skills will be sought by a large range of future employers as nanotechnology becomes an ever-greater part of our daily lives.
