One of the oldest and broadest of the engineering fields, Mechanical Engineering is the discipline that applies Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, and Materials Science principles to design, analyze and manufacture mechanical systems.
Mechanical engineers design power-producing machines, for example, electric generators, internal combustion engines, steam and gas turbines, as well as power-using machines, such as refrigerator and air-conditioning systems.
Mechanical Engineering skills are transferable, which means they will be useful across a variety of industries and help you to become more employable. A mechanical engineer combines knowledge of Physics and Mathematics to create new devices for production.
If your interest lies in building complex machines for the use of the public, then a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering will give you a range of skills including problem-solving, teamwork, advanced technical skills, academic writing and decision making
