Overview

• If you want to become a Professional Mechanical Engineer, and have a 3-year engineering degree but no work experience, the Master of Professional Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) will get you there.
• Throughout the degree there is an emphasis on practical experience with hands-on laboratory sessions and 60 days industry experience, preparing you thoroughly for the engineering profession.
• Study advanced principles of dynamics, renewable energy technology, fibre-reinforced composites, system design and fluid mechanics.
• You will complete a research project and dissertation applying all your formal knowledge to a real world problem. Whether this is the efficiency of different bio-fuels, obstacle detecting robotics or the design of FSAE race cars, your project will provide insight to the profession of a Mechanical Engineer.
• The research project and dissertation can also be a stepping stone to further research degrees, such as PhD.
