BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING (HONS) MECHANICAL

Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) MECHANICAL
SPECIALIZATION:
• Automotive • Energy • Manufacturing • Materials • Petroleum Engineering
Mechanical Engineering is the application of engineering principles to the design, development and manufacturing of mechanical devices and systems. The programme's objective is to produce competent mechanical engineering graduates who are creative and innovative in the design, analysis and operation management of mechanical design systems, with R&D and leadership capabilities.
PROGRAMME EMPHASIS
The programme stresses on strong foundation in Mathematics and Physics followed by a thorough coverage of basic engineering courses such as Statics, Solid Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer. In the later years of study, students are exposed to courses in operations management, vibration, manufacturing technology, mechanics of machines, mechanical engineering design and mechatronics. In addition to the above courses, students have the opportunities to specialise in selected areas such as Automotive, Energy, Manufacturing, Materials and Petroleum.
CAREER PROSPECTS
Mechanical engineers are normally employed in industries producing automobiles, industrial machines and components and household appliances. The job involves designing of mechanical components and devices, supervising and maintaining the production operation. Mechanical engineers are also in demand in the oil and gas and power related industries.
