Design and build tomorrow’s machines and systems from small scale devices to air and spacecraft, with the Master of Engineering (Mechanical) at Australia’s No.1 university for engineering and technology. Turn energy into power and motion, gain skills in mechanical design, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and more. Learn from world leading experts Develop advanced mechanical engineering skills, guided by experts in fluid mechanics, turbulence and biomechanics. You’ll be learning from researchers who have developed robots with a human touch, low-cost prostheses, 3D printing to create jaws and save hearts and working to improve the efficiency of aircraft. An industry aligned curriculum Apply your skills in internships, industry projects, and innovation challenges with industry mentors. An internationally recognised qualification Open doors to engineering careers around the world with dual accreditation in the Master of Engineering. World class facilities Access cutting-edge laboratories and a heavy engineering workshop for materials testing, engine and turbine testing, wind tunnel investigations and metal forming processing. Course structure FIRST YEAR In your first year (or equivalent) you’ll complete foundation engineering subjects – tailored to students from a non-engineering background. If you’ve completed the Mechanical Systems major in your bachelor’s degree, plus the required maths and science subjects, you’ll receive credit for these foundation engineering subjects and start in second year. SECOND AND THIRD YEAR In the second and third year of the program (or equivalent), you’ll focus on your chosen engineering discipline. As a mechanical engineering student, your focus will be on turning energy into power and motion, and designing, constructing and operating devices and systems. You will focus on fluid mechanics, turbulence and biomechanics. You’ll undertake an industry, design or research project and gain the skills and knowledge to practice as a professional engineer. Careers As a mechanical engineer, you could work in a range of fields such as infrastructure and construction, aerostructures, biotechnology, manufacturing, or mining and resources.
