General Mechanical Engineering

The transversal specialization of “Mechanical Engineering – General” will allow to:

• Train mechanical engineers capable of responding to the needs of micro, small and medium-sized companies, which represent a very relevant part of the national employment market.
• A survey of FEUP’s 10 main employers of mechanical engineers clearly showed that one of the main virtues of the current MIEM is its transversal character;
• To take into account a significant number of students who are attracted to more than one area of mechanical engineering (design, energy, production, automation, management …) and who want to have a more general education.

Therefore, this transversal specialization will be a distinctive feature of M.EM in relation to the other master’s degrees in mechanical engineering.

It should also be noted that there is a consolidated tradition in Universities of Excellence for implementing study cycles in Mechanical Engineering where a “transversal” Specialization coexists with “in-depth” Specializations”.
