  • Objectives
    The Manufacturing postgraduate programmes have been designed and developed in conjunction with the manufacturing industry to develop the expertise of graduates coming into the sector, as well as graduate level personnel working in companies. The MSc/MTech Manufacturing and MRes Innovative Manufacturing focus on cutting-edge techniques applied in the research, design and operation of competitive manufacturing and information systems. The programmes have been developed with a strong emphasis on applying knowledge in the industrial environment and are taught in the context of industrial application. The major learning experience for full-time students is the industrial group project. This involves working in teams to fulfil demanding objectives within a tight time schedule, applying state-of-the-art technologies and approaches, and delivering results to a high professional standard. On completion, graduates have a broader network of global contacts, increased opportunities for individual specialism in industry and/or consultancy, and the capability to make an immediate and real contribution to the competitiveness of business organisations. Cranfield manufacturing graduates are highly sought after by industry.
