MJRP-MCENG v.1 Mechanical Engineering Major (M ProEng)

Curtin University

About

This major/stream is part of a larger course. Information is specific to the major/stream, please refer to the course for more information.

Mechanical Engineering is about anything that involves the movement of solid parts and fluid flows. It is founded on the need to understand, design and manufacture parts, machines, devices and integrated engineering systems that range from small, such as micro-mechanical actuators, to the large, for example, cars, machine tools, aircraft, and massive power-generating turbines. This major will provide students with intermediate and advanced topics to help fast-track a career in Mechanical Engineering. During their final-year project students will have the opportunity to apply advanced knowledge and technologies to research or design challenges in Mechanical Engineering.

Additional Course Expenses

Students may be expected to purchase a number of textbooks and other essential study materials.
