Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) (Honours)

Curtin University, Malaysia

Mechanical engineering enables you to analyse and develop technological systems involving motion, helping you harness energy and forces from nature to meet society’s needs. You’ll work with systems ranging from micro-mechanical devices to massive power-generating turbines, involving moving parts or fluid flow interacting with solid structures. As a Mechanical Engineer, you may design components or entire systems, plan manufacturing processes, manage plant operations and maintenance, offer consulting services, or lead research and development projects. Your skills will be applicable across industries such as power generation, material processing, transport, water supply, and their supporting sectors. The major has a common first year with all other engineering disciplines which builds a range of basic science skills and knowledge, with particular emphasis on physics, chemistry and mathematics. The course is highly directed towards developing fundamental knowledge and a generic skills base necessary for a wide range of career opportunities in the engineering industry, management, and research and development. The course has a well-maintained balance between theoretical skills and practical experience with up-to-date facilities for demonstrating concepts and their applications.
