Overview

Mechanical engineering: Any design you could dream of can be brought to reality by a mechanical engineer. Mechanical engineers apply scientific and engineering knowledge to develop, manufacture and operate machines and tools, which can then be used to develop other products. This degree teaches you how to design and manage the construction, operation and maintenance of machines used in many industries.

Mechanical and manufacturing engineering: Bridge the gap between new designs and their execution with Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. You’ll learn how to design and manage the construction, operation and maintenance of equipment used in many industries – nearly anything that people drive, play with or live in.

Aerospace engineering: Immerse yourself in the science and practice of air and space flight with this exciting degree. You’ll cover design, development, testing and production of aerospace vehicles, maintenance and operation of aircraft, and aerospace research. In your final year you’ll execute a team project, applying your skills in aircraft design to meet a defined mission specification.

Double degrees: Aerospace, Mechanical, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering can be combined with 425560 Bachelor of Fine Arts, 425850 Bachelor of Arts, 425850 Bachelor of Science, 425850 Bachelor of Science (Computer Science), 425900 Bachelor of Commerce, 426000 Bachelor of Laws, or 429330 Bachelor of Science (Advanced Mathematics) (Hons), 429360 Bachelor of Advanced Science (Hons), or 425950 M Biomedical Engineering.
