Mechanical Engineering

The SIT and University of Glasgow joint degree in Mechanical Engineering is a three-year honours program that offers a comprehensive foundation in mechanical engineering along with essential digital skill sets. This program allows you to specialise in one of three exciting fields: Design, Mechatronics, or Aerospace.

• Under the Design specialisation, students will learn the concepts of digital manufacturing and design through modules in additive engineering, engineering materials technology, mechanical design and microelectronics for engineering products.


• Students in the Mechatronics specialisation will learn the special skill sets in IIoT, that apply to automation and robotics, mechatronics design, co-bot design and build, as well as machine learning.


• The Aerospace specialisation offers comprehensive insights into aircraft performance, propulsion, and computational aerodynamics. Through modules like UAV Project and Guidance, Navigation, and Control, students gain hands-on experience and expertise in unmanned aerial vehicles and aerospace technologies.

To thrive in today's industrial landscape, it is crucial to possess the knowledge, understanding, and skills required for mechanical engineering. Through project-based multidisciplinary learning and direct industrial immersion, you will not only gain a deep understanding of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), data analytics, and digital designs but also acquire advanced knowledge in these areas.

Our degree program is designed to prepare graduates for the increasing demands of various key industries in Singapore. These industries include aerospace engineering, healthcare engineering, automation/robotics, smart designs utilizing 3D printing, and digital design tools for manufacturing and maritime sectors. By pursuing this joint degree program, you will develop a strong foundation in mechanical engineering while also gaining expertise in emerging digital technologies. This unique combination of skills will enable you to excel in the ever-evolving landscape of the engineering industry and make a significant impact in your chosen field.
