Department of Mechanical Engineering
UBC Mechanical Engineering offers MEng, MASc, and PhD programs for people wishing to pursue advanced degrees. We have eight research groups covering
- Applied Solid Mechanics
- Biomechanics & Biomedical Engineering
- Computational Engineering
- Energy & Environment
- Fluid Mechanics
- Manufacturing Automation & Robotics
- Mechatronics & Instrumentation
- Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering
If interested, our graduate students may also pursue work experience through UBC Engineering’s co-op program.
