Mechanical Engineering

If a system moves or uses energy, a mechanical engineer was involved in its design, manufacturing, and maintenance. The Mechanical Engineering program, allows for a selection of electives to obtain a degree of specialization in one of five areas, or to choose electives, which broaden the general knowledge base in mechanical engineering. Students have the opportunity to focus in areas such as wind and solar energy, food and beverage engineering, mechatronics, manufacturing system, and design and biomechanics. Students choosing the Co-op program will complete their degree in five years.Graduates in Mechanical Engineering are able to apply mathematical, scientific, and engineering principles to a wide variety of fields and be employed across the private and public sectors. Career opportunities may include solar resarch engineer, design engineer, robotics engineer, mechanical design engineer, and senior project engineer.
