Mechanical (Honours) Swinburne University of Technology

Overview

Mechanical engineering is the design of technology involving physical motion. Mechanical engineers use thermal, fluid, energy and material sciences to design, manufacture and maintain systems, such as heating and cooling in buildings, vehicle safety structures, aircraft power units, energy generation, mining equipment and medical implant devices.  

In the final years of  Mechanical (Honours) programme from Swinburne University of Technology , you will be involved with industry-based projects and practical laboratories to prepare you for entry to the profession, or as a pathway into research or further learning.

Career opportunities

Mechanical Engineering graduates may find employment in a variety of areas in industry and commerce, such as automotive, aviation, transport, power, manufacturing, materials processing, appliance production, mechanical building services, oil and gas, mining and raw material conversion. Roles may include design, development, testing, innovation, project management, planning, research, quality control, and engineering management.
