Course Information & Syllabus
Course Information :
This degree provides a broad based engineering education to equip students with the knowledge required to practice
professionally not only as a mechanical engineer but also as manufacturing engineer. The main aim of this course is to enable students to understand the fundamental concepts of engineering with the emphasis on those most relevant to mechanical engineering; as well as to show how they may be applied to solve a wide range of mechanical engineering problems using computers and computer-aided methods. Students are strongly recommended to take advantage of the industrial placement, which provides the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills gained during the course.
