լи’s Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering is a four-year degree that challenges you to design, create, and improve systems that turn energy into power and motion. Your core courses will teach you to develop solutions using robotics, new advanced materials, and more. You’ll learn about using the principles of motion, energy, and force to create safe, reliable, and sustainable machines. As you progress through your degree, you’ll be given further opportunities to choose electives like land-based or marine mechanical engineering, that allow you to develop more specialised skills to suit your study and career goals.
This work will be capped off in your fourth-year Honours research project. You’ll design and conduct your very own research with the assistance of your academic supervisor to make an original contribution to the field of engineering research.
You will also complete a 60-day mechanical engineering internship. You’ll gain invaluable hands-on experience to complement your engineering knowledge and show you how a practicing engineer solves problems in the real world.
When you study with us, you’ll have access to purpose-built engineering workshops and facilities, and benefit from the best university teacher-to-student ratio in Australia. Working with experienced engineers and client representatives on industry-focused design and research projects, you’ll gain the hands-on experience required to meet the global challenges of the future.
Our teachers are experienced practitioners and collaborate closely with industry to ensure our graduates possess the skills to meet the needs of the workplace.
“I believe that a mechanical engineering degree at լи is a fantastic choice. It provides an intellectual challenge, while also giving you important practical skills alongside the necessary theoretical knowledge, building a balanced skills base before going on to a wide range of employment opportunities.”
Paul Nilsson, Mechanical Engineering student
