Entry requirementsYou will normally be expected to hold a first degree , or equivalent, in a science or management-based subject, although applications are welcomed from mature students with relevant work experience.
Course descriptionThe range of skills required by Engineering and Manufacturing Industry is so diverse that it is impossible to put courses together that fit the aspirations of each company and each student. This course is offered to give flexibility to both students and companies to put together a series of modules totally appropriate to the needs of the student or the company. The Postgraduate Centre academic staff assist students in selecting appropriate modules.
Postgraduate engineering courses have also been developed jointly between MS Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies, Bangalore, India and Coventry University. The curriculum has been developed as per Coventry University rules and regulations and complies with QAA standards. Coventry University confers the MSc Engineering and Manufacturing Management degree to successful candidates. MSRSAS also conducts PhD degrees with Coventry University. The research programme is in the areas of mechanical, electronics and engineering related management.
