Bachelor of Engineering BEng Mechanical Engineering

McGill University offers a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) in Mechanical Engineering, a programme that is both dynamic and future-oriented and is intended for students who are keen on using innovative thinking, design, and technical knowledge to develop solutions for real-world issues. Based in downtown Montreal, this three-year program of study gives students a well-rounded understanding of mechanical systems, thermodynamics, materials, mechanics, and computer-aided design (CAD). The program not only lays solid technical foundations but also emphasizes innovation, sustainability, and problem-solving, positioning future engineers to develop and invent technologies that transform the way we live and work.

Curriculum Structure:
McGill learning goes far beyond the classroom. The curriculum is a carefully balanced combination of theory and practice, with: • Core Science and Math Courses – Solid foundations in physics, calculus, and chemistry
• Mechanical Engineering Core – Thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, solid mechanics, and materials
• Design-Oriented Learning – Control systems, machine design, CAD modeling, and manufacturing processes
• Capstone Design Project – Students spend the final year working in teams to apply their knowledge to a real engineering issue, taking the solution from concept to prototype
• Technical Electives and Laboratories – Opportunities to explore robotics, energy systems, or biomechanics, depending on student interests

Accreditation:
This program is accredited by Engineers Canada, to the highest national standards for engineering programs. Graduates are eligible to apply for registration as Professional Engineers (P.Eng.) in Canada and internationally.

Campus Location:
Located in the multicultural, cosmopolitan city of Montreal, Quebec, McGill's downtown campus offers students access to state-of-the-art laboratories, peer design studios, and a vibrant innovation ecosystem. As one of Canada's leading research universities, McGill is strongly networked with industry partners, start-ups, and global research centers, offering students unprecedented exposure to real-world applications of what they are learning.
