Offering teaching that is directly informed by wide-ranging research sits at the heart of iSLI’s ethos. The iSLI Graduate School is part of Heriot-Watt’s School of Engineering and Physical Sciences, which covers areas of excellence in Chemistry, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic and Computer Engineering, and Chemical Engineering.
Making this unique opportunity possible is the collaboration of four of the UK’s leading universitites, comprising Edinburgh, Glasgow, Heriot-Watt and Strathclyde, awarding the prestigious MSc jointly.
What is more, this creates opportunities for overseas students in particular as two thirds of the on-campus students are from countries outwith the UK. Therefore creating opportunites for cross-cultural and interdisciplinary interaction through iSLI’s new multi-million pound, purpose-built Postgraduate Centre. Whilst also the possibility of industrial project placements through the strong links established with industry, resulting in the ability to secure access to leading edge design tools, state of the art IP, industrial design platforms and development systems.
