BACHELOR OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING ( HONOURS )
KPT / JPT ( R2 / 521 / 6 / 0099 ) 03 / 27 - MQA / FA7520
Mechanical engineering is about the efficient use of energy in the design and function of all types of mechanisms , from the simplest to the most complex .
It covers the generation , conversion , transmission and use of mechanical and thermal energy , and includes the design , construction and operation of devices and systems . Growth industries include advanced manufacturing , smart buildings , renewable energy , biomedical engineering and consulting practice .
Mechanical engineers are increasingly engaged in the design and operation of devices that require skills that cross traditional discipline boundaries . You might design automatic control systems , or create efficiently heated and cooled buildings . You could manage the water supply for a whole state , take charge of the operation of a smart building , design wind turbines or highly efficient , low-cost products for the developing world .
You might be called on to optimise the aerodynamics of cars , trucks and trains , work with the medical profession to create robots that can operate with greater precision than a human , or be at the cutting edge of advanced manufacturing using 3D printers to create aircraft parts with elegance and function .
