Projects - Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) MSc, PgDip, PgCert
Research projects
The individual research project allows students to demonstrate the ability to critically evaluate the existing research literature, to place their research into a theoretical and practical context and to exhibit knowledge and understanding of Computational Fluid Dynamics.
Research projects are offered in the areas of expertise of the Department of Fluid Mechanics and Computational Science. Tailored research projects can be developed to accommodate particular research interests and career aspirations of a student.
