Engineering Management MSc (Mauritius campus)

Middlesex University

The programme equips graduates with advanced engineering management skills to drive innovation, optimise operations, and lead successfully in global markets. A key highlight is the group project module, where students work on real-world industry challenges, applying management principles to develop practical, innovative solutions while building strong leadership, collaboration, and communication skills.

This course provides extensive hands-on experience, with practical work integrated into every module. Instead of a traditional thesis, students complete a team project designed to reflect real-life industry scenarios.

Students have access to advanced technology, software, studios, laboratories, and workshops equipped with specialist, industry-standard tools. There is also the opportunity to work towards a PRINCE2 certification as part of the programme.

In addition to developing an in-depth understanding of the subject, students become proficient in software such as WITNESS, Simul8, MATLAB, and Simulink. They learn to apply modelling and simulation techniques in engineering, validate models through case studies, and gain a solid grounding in management theory, systems theory, and the global, social, ethical, and environmental context of engineering.

The role of an engineering manager is both exciting and demanding, requiring the ability to oversee complex technical operations, lead engineering teams, and ensure projects meet quality standards within set constraints. However, there is a global shortage of professionals who possess both advanced technical expertise and strong management capabilities. This master’s degree has been specifically designed to address that need.
