As a mechanical engineer, you are the builder of the present and an architect of the future. Pursuing a master’s or PhD in Mechanical and Materials Engineering at UC will grant you the advanced knowledge needed to design, manufacture, and operate machines and mechanical systems, solving complex problems that affect almost every aspect of modern life.

The MS is grouped into research foci consisting of Structural Dynamics and Acoustics; PHM, Intelligent Systems and Reliability Engineering; Advanced Manufacturing; Engineering Simulation and Applied Mechanics; Nano-Technology and Bio-Medical Engineering; Thermal-Fluid and Enhanced Heat Transfer; and Advanced Materials Research. With five major research centres housed in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, you’ll have many opportunities to engage in scholarly research and knowledge creation.

“After I completed my Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering at UC, I continued towards a PhD as I wanted to solve the problems that I had identified in my master’s research,” says Parikshit Boregowda, a Mechanical Engineering graduate. “Now I work on a numerical method that can help model (and solve) engineering problems involving waves – and that’s exciting!”
