Developed as one of the first of its kind in the UK, the course is relevant for engineering graduates who intend to enter or enhance their career prospects in the petroleum or natural gas industry.The accredited course cover all aspects of gas resourcing and technology and explores the management and distribution of gas from practical and theoretical viewpoints. Alongside this specialised knowledge of natural gas, you will also develop a range of transferable skills, such as mathematical analysis, problem-solving, communications and laboratory skills.On completion, you may be eligible to join the Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers or Society of Petroleum Engineers which may enable you to qualify as a Chartered Engineer.Increase your skills and technical knowledge in all aspects of gas technology and associated gas business management.Develop associated gas business management skills relevant to contemporary commercial practices.<br><br>This MSc programme is delivered over one year full-time, or two years part-time. The course consists of four 30-credit modules and one 60-credit project module. A nine-month PgDip pathway is also available.In semester one, you'll explore the fundamental of natural gas, building an understanding of key geological processes, exploration, drilling, and production. You'll also business and project gas management. In the second semester, you'll study the utilisation of natural gas mad its distribution and transmission, which will provide you with specialist knowledge of gas supply.Following this, you'll bring together all of your learning to conduct high-level coordinated academic and practical work to form your final dissertation assessment. The project often relates to current research in gas engineering.<br><br>Due to the relative uniqueness of this course in the UK, together with the high demand of graduates with the types of skills and knowledge that this course offers, employment prospects are excellent. Graduates can expect to enter or progress in industries such as petroleum, gas, process engineering, chemical or steel.
