A Doctorate in Mechanical Engineering allows for an in-depth understanding of the
various principles related to the field and provides the opportunity for students to
explore possible applications to industry-specific challenges.
The three-year Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering programme offered by the Department of
Mechanical Engineering allows students to focus on a specific area of research while
also developing a broader knowledge of the field. Structured as a combination of
coursework and research-based activities, the programme covers topics such as energy
systems, manufacturing and design engineering, and robotics and automation. At the end
of the programme, students will have to complete a dissertation to establish mastery of
their chosen research subject.
Completing the doctoral degree in Mechanical Engineering offers graduates the
opportunity to gain knowledge of the field and the ability to apply it in a professional
environment. It also prepares them for leadership roles in the management of technical
projects and can open the door to new and exciting career paths.
