Master of Science (Engineering) (Penang Campus)

This program provides you opportunity to specialise in a chosen field of engineering research. You will understand, study and demonstrate your expertise in an engineering research topic through your dissertation. You will develop your research skills through two taught modules, i.e. research methodology and quantitative analysis. You will be then be supervised by an academic team.

COURSE STRUCTURE

Research Proposal

Students will systematically structure and develop their research by developing a research proposal, which would guide the student through the entire research process. To enhance the rigor of the research proposal, the students will also need to complete a semester of Research Methods and one other subject (Qualitative\ Quantitative methods) in addition to participating in periodic research seminars and workshops.

Research

Upon approval of the research proposal, students will be guided by their supervisors to begin their research, and will work independently on their research projects.

Dissertation

Upon completion of their research, students will document the research project and process in a dissertation. Typically, dissertations for a Master by research is not more than 60,000 words.

Viva Volce

Upon completion of the research and dissertation, students will undergo an oral examination, chaired by experts in the field.
