Description


The course is structured according to projects which allow the student to consolidate theoretical and technical knowledge and integrate the acquired knowledge into concrete objectives in order to develop necessary skills to a mechanical engineer. The course allows a multidisciplinary training combining basic science, engineering and specialties.

Throughout their education, students must face engineering problems of increased complexity, building a coherent pathway. In their last year, the goal is to efficiently consolidate the acquired knowledge, through the completion of a dissertation project, which involves several theoretical subjects learned throughout the course, while including a research component.

There are more and more activities which require a renowned professional training and the course is aware of this: general mechanical projects; building industry; energy related activities (gas, freezing and conditioning industries), among others.

Access to higher education


This course provides the technical and scientific capacity to access the courses of the second cycle (Master)

Careers


The employment options cover a wide range of activities, from transforming industry, to services or R&D, including plastics, textile, electronics, automation and mechatronics. A special emphasis is placed on the automobile, naval or aeronautical industry.
