Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering provides the student with fundamental training in the areas of statics, dynamics, and mechanics of materials; thermodynamics and fluid dynamics; material properties and metallurgy; analysis and synthesis of mechanical systems; and mechatronics and controls. Practical applications and advanced engineering design are introduced.
Students must follow the program of study that was in place at the time of their entrance to the College of Engineering, recognizing that program and course changes may result in modification to the original program of study. It is recommended that students contact the Engineering Student Centre to confirm their program of study on a regular basis.
