Anchored on research (thesis and publications), this programme is designed for graduate students who are keen on finding solutions for pertinent problems. Delving into in-depth theoretical aspects of professional engineering disciplines – civil, electrical, electronics, mechanical and mechatronics, among others – the programme offers an immersive experience. Graduate students start with issue analysis, plan their research projects and apply their findings or innovations to the industry or the commercial market.
To give candidates an advantage in conducting quality research, the programme includes a specifically-designed 3-credit hour Research Methodology coursework module. This equips students with the essential skills and know-how to gain an edge in competitive research, presentation, and the publication of their findings in national and international scientific journals. Graduate students are also encouraged to participate in national and international engineering conferences at least once during the course of their studies to expand their network and working relationships with supervisors, colleagues and peers at UCSI and in the wider research community.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements. It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
