工学学士（荣誉学位）和工程学硕士-机械和材料工程

机械工程师设计和制造电厂，工业用机械和设备，并且在生产能源并将其转换为其他形式方面是专家。他们可能会设计涡轮机，土方机械，食品加工机，空调和制冷系统，人造心脏和肢体以及飞机或汽车的发动机。随着新兴产业的出现，对机械工程师的需求也越来越广泛，而旧产业则利用自动化技术的发展和新能源的利用。<br> <br>材料工程涵盖了制成品中的材料设计，性能和材料使用。机械工程包括设计，数学，建模，计算，管理和工程科学的核心课程。机械工程的主要主题是流体力学，热力学和传热，固体力学，制造，能源系统，动力学和控制。
Develop the skills and knowledge you need to get a head start in an engineering career that requires specialist skills and adaptability, or to give you the edge when applying for a higher degree by research. This 5-year program is designed to give you an overall education in engineering as well as specialist knowledge in fields such as civil or software engineering. You'll graduate job-ready with a comprehensive knowledge of engineering and a range of practical skills. You'll undertake a full-time placement with industry or a research institution either in Australia or overseas, and complete advanced coursework and project work in your final year. You'll also undertake a supervised master's thesis on a relevant topic and be involved with all aspects of research, including defining a research question, establishing a methodology and reporting on your findings. Fourth-year students have the opportunity to study overseas with the European Double Degree program. This allows you to learn from some of the best engineering and technical teachers in the world, and graduate with an additional master's degree from one of our partner universities. <br><br>Mechanical engineers design and manufacture power plants, machinery and equipment for industry, and are expert in producing energy and converting it to other forms. They may design turbines, earthmoving machinery, food processors, air-conditioning and refrigeration systems, artificial hearts and limbs, and engines for aircrafts or automobiles. The demand for mechanical engineers is increasingly broad, as new industries emerge, and old industries take advantage of automation developments and new sources of energy. Materials engineering covers materials design, properties and use of materials in manufactured articles. Mechanical engineering includes core courses in design, mathematics, modelling, computing, management and engineering science. The principal topics in mechanical engineering are fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and heat transfer, solid mechanics, manufacturing, energy systems, dynamics and control.
