Career opportunities

The masters experience at UoM helped me gain a good breadth of knowledge around my area of interest that first helped me get into the aerospace industry.

The application based teaching in some courses helped prepare me in solving real world engineering problems through materials solutions. Also, having experiential learning opportunities through the student union helped hone my communication and leadership skills.
