Bachelor of Science - Engineering - Mechanical Engineering (Optional Co-op)

Mechanical engineers solve problems. They focus on making the world a better place by creating efficient, safe, and environmentally sound components and systems. In UNB’s Mechanical Engineering program, students will learn to analyze, design, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. Students will gain the skills they need to create and build mechanical devices such as spacecraft and artificial limbs, to design automation, medical tools, robotics, and ventilation systems, and to redesign existing mechanical systems and components to be more affordable and environmentally sound.

Many of New Brunswick’s successful mechanical engineers have graduated from UNB’s Mechanical Engineering program. That’s because the program offers exciting and diverse program options, including Biomedical Engineering and Mechatronics.

Hands-on learning: • Co-operative Education (Co-op) program • Coursework requiring hands-on design projects • On-campus machine shop for building and testing prototypes

Skills that students will acquire: • Analyze, design, improve, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems and devices • Solve problems using applied physics and other science disciplines • Find solutions that respect the environment and other stakeholders • Communicate technical solutions • Work with other engineering disciplines
