Bachelor Of Engineering Technology (mechanical) in Waikato Institute of Technology (Wintec)

Summary

Mechanical engineering technologists design and give advice on the building and repair of machines and tools. They could spend their day determining the requirements of the production manager, carrying out feasibility studies, researching the use of energy sources, machinery and materials, using CAD software to model plans or preparing drawings of machines or machine parts.

This programme is for those who want a career in engineering. Students will learn theory and practical skills using technology in our engineering labs. The Bachelor of Engineering Technology is accredited by the Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ).  As a mechanical engineering technologist, you'll design and give advice on the building and repair of machines and tools.

If students are in employment, the project module can be tailored to their workplace.​

What you'll learn

First year

Students will study mechanical engineering theory and then put learning into practice through project work. In the first year students will study six standard engineering courses plus two courses specific to their major, mechanical engineering.

Second year

In their second year of study students will study mechanical production, manufacturing processes, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, the strength of different materials and product design

Third year

The third year involves a major project linked to industry; students will continue with specialist subjects to provide an in-depth knowledge of the operation and design requirements of various mechanical infrastructures.
