The new Master in Engineering Physics of the Technical University of Barcelona- BarcelonaTech offers a one year intensive program in Engineering Physics. We cover topics of Physics at the forefront of new technologies ranging from the nanotechnology to the emerging field of quantum technologies. To this end, the Master includes advanced courses on Statistical and Quantum Physics, Physics and Engineering of large facilities such as the synchrotron, and pathways to the physics of complexity in different areas. The Master is addressed to an international audience and thus it is conducted in English.
At the beginning of the XXI century a new kind of engineering is emerging, as the Key Enabling Technologies of the European Union put forward recently. A new kind of professionals starts now to be needed for working in cutting-edge engineering. Our Master in Engineering Physics is intended to provide new generations with enough knowledge on Physics to capacitate them for working in wide areas, ranging from nanoengineering and nanoelectronics to quantum technologies.

You can study Safety and Reliability Engineering for Oil and Gas flexibly from anywhere in the world as this delivery is online. You can fit this programme around your work and other commitments part time.
Whilst Safety and Reliability Engineering allows you to apply your skills and knowledge to a wider range of industries, this programme is specifically for the oil and gas industry. It provides you with the knowledge to review reliability of engineering facilities, materials and products and legislative framework at the same time. Safety has always been of paramount concern in the oil and gas industry with a lot of learning and knowledge acquired since the oil industry growth of the 1970s. This knowledge has been scrutinised by University of Aberdeen and the industry to provide professional expertise to manage safety and reliability. Future challenges are being met to some extent by the advent of affordable sensors which manage difficult to reach places, but nonetheless require the knowledge and capabilities of professionals working in this discipline to ensure they are fit for purpose.
The MSc Safety Engineering for Oil & Gas programme provides training in safety engineering, reliability engineering, and loss prevention in the offshore, nuclear, transport, aerospace and process industries and more. Fully accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), the Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE), the Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE) and the Chartered Institution of Highways & Transportation (CIHT).
