Mechanical Engineering Technology – Design Program (T121)

Program Description

Program Overview

Join us in designing the future, today! The three-year Mechanical Engineering Technology – Design advanced diploma program gives you a solid grounding in engineering sciences and practical hands-on experience in mechanical and computer-assisted design labs. This combination of applied and theoretical knowledge will equip you with the skill set employers are looking for in today’s integrated work environments.

Full Description

Study real-world solutions. Mechanical engineering is the cornerstone of sophisticated and technologically advanced economies. Process automation and control, precision machining, and design functions can be found in industries as diverse as automotive, aerospace, robotics, biotechnology, and energy. These mechanical functions open doors to a wide range of industrial automation and design-oriented careers.

In your third year of the Mechanical Engineering Technology – Design advanced diploma program, you'll apply your new knowledge as you work with a team to plan, fabricate, and test your designs. Once built, projects such as medical devices, entertainment equipment, solar-powered products, and automotive accessories are often put on display and form an important part of your assessment. This experience will teach you important lessons in teamwork, while also solidifying your mechanical engineering knowledge and skills.

Note: If you enrol in the program in January, you must complete semester 2 in the summer (May to August) of the same year.
