Overview
London John Moores University’s Marine and Mechanical Engineering with Foundation Year prepares students for careers in the marine and mechanical engineering sector. Students will learn about construction, 3D modelling, and project tracking, as well as onshore and offshore engineering activities. They will specifically apply engineering principles to address challenges related to the marine environment.
In this programme, students will learn how to design, build, and develop mechanical devices and systems through data analysis software like MATLAB. They will examine the natural resources within the ocean and the exploration techniques which can be used to extract them for profit. The course also includes a foundation year that allows students to become familiar with the material before starting the main university degree programme.
Learning in this course is through lectures, tutorials, excursions, seminars, and conferences where industry professionals address the students and provide answers to their pending questions. Assessment methods include examinations, tests, presentations, and a final-year project.
