Key Enabling Technologies (PgCert)

Key enabling technologies lead to breakthroughs where significant problems in society are resolved with a technology that is suddenly possible. This course provides learners with an opportunity to embark on a research and innovation journey, by understanding the leveraging impacts achievable with four of the six key enabling technologies identified by Europe in areas such as Advanced Materials, Advanced Manufacturing, Micro-/nano-electronics, and Artificial Intelligence.

The PG Cert is envisaged as the first year of a three-year part-time postgraduate journey. Completion of modules in the second year results in a PG Diploma (+30 ECTS, 60 total). The third year is a research-intensive year and will result in an MSc in Key Enabling Technologies (+30 ECTS, 90 credits).
