Summary

In December 2024, the University of Bolton was granted permission by the Office for Students (OfS) to change its name to the University of Greater Manchester with immediate effect. While we work to update our systems, you may see both names used in the information we provide.

The MRes Sustainable Engineering Management degree is a multidisciplinary research training programme with a specialised focus on sustainable practices in engineering industries. Combining rigorous training in advanced research skills with personalised research projects that build deep subject knowledge in engineering sustainability, this exciting programme is designed to inspire your imagination, foster your creativity and support you in becoming an exemplary expert in sustainability.

The University of Greater Manchester's Master's by Research (MRes) in Sustainable Engineering Management is a multidisciplinary research training programme designed to be truly novel and sui generis. It is designed to inspire the imagination and foster creativity while providing rigorous training in advanced research skills and deep subject knowledge.

The programme is delivered through a staged and flexible approach, enabling you to develop research skills in preparation for a PhD or Professional Doctorate. You will have opportunities to undertake applied research projects involving knowledge exchange.

The MRes programme will provide a common foundation for PhD or Professional Doctorate programmes with an interim award available following the gaining of 60 credits (PgCert), and an exit award of the 180 credit MRes.

The MRes programme focuses on advancing the understanding and application of sustainable engineering principles within the context of engineering and management. The programme explores how sustainable practices can be integrated into strategic decision-making processes in engineering organisations. The aim is to guide around the claptrap to actions that really make a difference about sustainability and to policies that add up. You will gain hands-on experience in calculating cumulative energy and exergy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions for various industrial processes and transportation, and also discuss the risk management and decision-making methods.
