Overview

The Mechanical Engineering course from University of Minho allows a multidisciplinary training combining basic science, engineering and specialties.

Throughout their education, students must face engineering problems of increased complexity, building a coherent pathway. In their last year, the goal is to efficiently consolidate the acquired knowledge, through the completion of a dissertation project, which involves several theoretical subjects learned throughout the course, while including a research component.

There are more and more activities which require a renowned professional training and the course is aware of this: general mechanical projects; building industry; energy related activities (gas, freezing and conditioning industries), among others.

Careers

The employment options cover a wide range of activities, from transforming industry, to services or R&D, including plastics, textile, electronics, automation and mechatronics.
A special emphasis is placed on the automobile, naval or aeronautical industry.
