Understand, predict and control how mechanical systems work, through expertise in simulation and modeling. Modern engineering relies heavily on simulation and analysis to observe and understand mechanical systems, ultimately contributing to making them more efficient and more durable. You will gain deep theoretical knowledge in computational methods, including finite element analysis, finite volume methods, and finite difference methods, combined with hands-on experience applying them to real engineering problems. There are also courses in machine learning and data-driven modelling, reflecting the growing importance of AI-based approaches alongside traditional simulation. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
