Develop your specialist knowledge and skills in the field of mechanical engineering to prepare for future demand.

The Master of Mechanical Engineering (Professional) delves further into one of the broadest areas of engineering. It covers:

  • dynamics and control
  • thermodynamics and fluid mechanics
  • solid mechanics and design
  • manufacture and materials science.

Core to mechanical engineering is the ability to formulate a problem, identify potential solutions, analyse and model solutions and select the most appropriate solution within constraints. This approach is integrated into the program and is applicable across a range of professions, making you well prepared for a changing world.

Mechanical engineers are employed in diverse industries, including:

  • road and rail transport
  • aerospace
  • environmental
  • medical
  • power generation
  • building industries.

Your employment opportunities in Australia and overseas range from very large mining, refining, construction, manufacturing and consulting companies to small companies in which you might be the only engineer.

Some graduates start their own companies soon after they have gained the experience required to become a Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng).
