BACHELOR´S DEGREE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Field of Knowledge: Engineering and Architecture

The degree course in Mechanical Engineering will prepare you for the profession of Technical Industrial Engineer major in mechanics, which takes charge of designing, studying, building, installing and operating mechanical machines and devices and industrial structures and installations, such as lifting and transport machinery, machine tools, power installations, cooling installations, etc. In addition, it will prepare you to organise and direct production, operation and maintenance tasks.

If you are a creative person skilled at numbers, abstract thinking, logical reasoning and deduction, apart from having a facility for basic subjects such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and graphic expression, the Bachelor´s Degree in Mechanical Engineering is perfect for you.

This degree will train you to draw up and develop industrial engineering projects for the construction, repair, installation and assembly of structures, mechanical equipment, power facilities, electrical and electronic facilities, and manufacturing and automated processes, formulating hypotheses and solutions using the models proper to industrial engineering specialised in mechanics, assessing the social and environmental impact of technical solutions, resolving problems with initiative and creativity and working in a multilingual and multidisciplinary environment.
