BE Hons Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers design and develop everything that you think of as a machine from airplanes to wind turbines to dishwashers, as well as everything from macroscopic (large) down to nanoscopic (very small). Mechanical engineers are systematic thinkers with a sense of social responsibility that leads them to constantly seek better ways of doing things.UC's Mechanical Engineering department is top in New Zealand for research (the latest Tertiary Education Commission 2012 PBRF Assessment)
