Short Courses
|
Thanks to our Industrial Liaison Committee and the on-going industrial outreach, we are able to stay aware of current trends in industry, including the needs for Continuous Professional Development (CPD) courses and trainings for their staff. While the industry gladly welcomes our MEng / MSc graduates and PhD degree holders to join their expert forces, there is a demand for short courses for those already professionally active in industry but seeking further qualifications or wishing to upgrade his / her expertise. We offer short courses available to general public or we can tailor a course to the needs of an individual sector of industry or a single business. In fact, one of the courses initially designed specifically for an individual company met with such a good reception and wider interest that it became a regular course open to general public. |
