MSc in Mechanical Engineering

About the Program

The Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering (MSc MEEN) combines in-depth knowledge from core areas of mechanical engineering, including mechanics, thermodynamics, fluids, materials, manufacturing and controls. The integration of these core topics is essential for multidisciplinary threads, such as robotics, micro and nanotechnologies, production systems, and energy systems. Students will utilize modelling, computer simulation and advanced experimental techniques as tools to analyze and understand different phenomena and processes. Graduates of the MSc MEEN will have acquired the advanced level of knowledge needed to assume leading positions in industry and government, as well as continuing their studies to the Doctorate level.
