The Master of Engineering (MEng) in Mechanical Engineering is designed to help professionals in the engineering field enhance and expand their expertise. This program focuses on developing advanced skills in mechanical engineering, including research capabilities, to equip graduates for roles across various sectors, including industry, government, and academia.
Program Options: Course-Based vs. Project-Based
Course-Based Option: Enhance Your Engineering Knowledge
In the course-based option, students complete 10 courses (30 credits), including 4 core courses that are required for all MEng students. This option provides a broad knowledge base in mechanical engineering, ideal for professionals looking to deepen their technical expertise without a research project component.
Project-Based Option: Integrate Theory with Practice
The project-based option offers a more hands-on approach. Students complete 8 courses (24 credits) along with a 6-credit master’s project. This project allows students to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges, tailored to their specific area of specialization within mechanical engineering. The project-based option is perfect for those who want to explore advanced engineering concepts and contribute innovative solutions to the field.
Career Opportunities and Outcomes
Graduates of the MEng in Mechanical Engineering program are well-prepared for leadership roles in engineering design, manufacturing, research and development, and consulting. With the advanced skills acquired through this program, they can apply their knowledge in industry, government, or academia, driving innovation and solving complex engineering problems
