The mechanical engineering program is a professionally accredited curriculum that offers training in fundamental sciences, mathematics, and engineering principles. Students develop expertise in designing mechanical systems and processes by applying core concepts of mechanics, materials science, and energy dynamics.
Mechanical engineering applies the fundamentals of mechanics, material properties, and energy transfer to create mechanical systems and industrial processes. The program provides extensive flexibility, featuring specialized tracks in Aerospace and Manufacturing, along with focused studies in energy systems, advanced materials, and solid mechanics. Cooperative education - The University of Manitoba's Mechanical Engineering program pioneered Canada's first co-op option, integrating two paid industry work terms during the latter stages of study to complement academic learning. This engineering field encompasses a wide range of applications. It focuses on employing natural laws and fundamental principles to develop, construct, produce, and maintain various mechanical devices and systems. Professionals in this field must master mechanical and energy principles, force interactions with matter, thermal transfer characteristics, material behaviors, production techniques, and engineering design methodologies.
