Course Overview

Cranfield Safety and Accident Investigation Centre have been a center of excellence for aircraft accident investigation for over 40 years. In 2011, we were awarded a Queen’s Anniversary Prize for our world-leading work in aviation safety through research and training in air accident investigation. We started our multi-modal accident investigation training in 2005 and have since then established our rail and marine accident investigation training capabilities.  We are increasingly receiving interest from other safety-critical industries such as healthcare, infrastructure, power generation, etc. 
An important aspect of this course is the use of hands-on workshops and simulations to develop the practical skills required as an investigator, including interviewing techniques, analysis techniques, and technical writing. For the MSc degree, this is complemented by sessions that enable you to conduct rigorous research and scientific analysis.  Throughout the program, you are supported and taught by Cranfield's teaching staff and also by leading industry practitioners.  

The course is specifically designed to meet the academic study aspirations of the international safety professional community. The highly practical nature of the course requires course attendance in the UK for some elements of the program. However, most of the research and module assessments can be completed remotely. Cranfield University offers a comprehensive range of library and IT services tuned to support distance learning, enabling domestic and international students to study while balancing work/life commitments. Wherever possible, the University will continue to evolve to maximize distance learning opportunities within its programs.

General Eligibility

A first or second-class UK Honours degree in a relevant subject-based discipline (e.g., safety, engineering, transport management, human factors, psychology, etc.) or international equivalent.  Applicants without a UK Honours degree, however, with relevant industry experience are strongly encouraged to apply. 

Part Time Work Details

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • IELTS 6.5 overall and 5.5 in all skill components.
