Mechanical engineers work with 'things that move', from prosthetic limbs and robotic systems to motor vehicles, aircrafts and space stations. With maths and computer science more and more central to high technology developments in the field, specialised expertise offers huge benefits.
The PGDipMaterialsEng is for those who aspire to a career in materials processing and production, manufacturing, new materials deployment and development disciplines either in a technical or management role.
Mechanical engineers work with 'things that move', from prosthetic limbs and robotic systems to motor vehicles, aircrafts and space stations.This degree enables an additional, specialised science focus which compliments the core engineering foundations.
The PGCertMaterialsEng is aimed at those who aspire to a career in materials processing and production, manufacturing, new materials deployment and development disciplines either in a technical or management role. It is best suited to those looking to upskill quickly within their field.
Materials engineering challenges us to discover and design new materials that look in detail at the structure, properties and performance of basic resources that make up the world. Innovations in this space are often at the core of new technologies that change the way we live.
Investment in the advanced materials market is expanding the world over-in the space industry, medical technologies, defence, manufacturing, energy, telecommunications and more. Engineering professionals able to support materials innovation are in high demand.
UniSA is number one in Australia for quality education1 and we're one of Australia's leading universities for Engineering research.2 With the focus of this degree on finding solutions for real-world engineering problems, you will study:
High-achieving students can undertake a program of study in chemical sciences and materials engineering in only five years with this degree combination. It prepares you with a broad-based foundation in chemistry before continuing to the masters, which provides an understanding of advanced processing and fabrication methods of engineering materials and their characterisation.
