MSc CORROSION CONTROL ENGINEERING
Course Description:
The masters course in Corrosion Control Engineering provides you with a thorough grounding in corrosion and its control. You will explore principles, protection strategies and industrial applications, preparing you for either a career in industry as a corrosion scientist or engineer, or for cutting-edge academic research.
Aims of this programme:
- To produce competent, professionally qualified graduates who are appropriately trained to secure immediate, rewarding and useful employment in the UK, European or overseas industries as corrosion scientists or engineers
- To provide conversion training, which is academically-based and intellectually challenging, as well as directly relevant to the requirements of the subject, the student, industry and other employers.
- To satisfy the needs of practicing engineers, scientists and technologists wishing to develop professional competence in the areas of corrosion and corrosion control processes.
Module details:
The programme consists of discrete taught units, each of two-week duration, in short-course format, followed by a dissertation project (MSc) or short project report (Diploma). Postgraduate qualifications are awarded at Masters, PG Diploma and PG Certificate levels.
The full MSc programme is made up of six taught course units and a five month research project. The taught units are:
- Materials and Corrosion
- Principles of Corrosion
- Environments, Testing and Localised Corrosion
- Corrosion Control Methods
- Corrosion in Oil and Gas
- Corrosion in Process and Power
