Baccalauréat en Ingénierie - Génie Mécanique (MECH) Majeure

Improving Quality of Life Through Engineering

Design, Implement and Develop Solutions

Designed around a framework of sustainability, Mechanical Engineering empowers you to learn and apply the principles of physics and materials science for the analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems involved in the quality of life.

Explore an Interdisciplinary Degree

By emphasizing collaboration and integration, you will experience practical design-based learning and develop the tools to create new and effective solutions to issues in our world, with unique courses such as Kinematics and Dynamics, Machine Design, Electric Circuits, and Electromechanical Devices.

Enjoy a Challenging, Rewarding Career

Graduates of Mechanical Engineering are involved in the development of machines and equipment ranging from mega marine ships to minute instruments used in medicine and surgery, and many more industries related to improving quality of life, the environment, and more.

Why Mechanical Engineering?

Mechanical engineering is the backbone of making things move in our society. You’ll use design skills to develop processes and systems that improve our environment, technology and quality of life, acting to apply mathematical, scientific and engineering principles to a wide variety of fields.

Improve Living

Over 24,000 students learn at the University of Guelph every year. More than 800 faculty teach here every year. More than 1,800 research projects to improve life in a variety of capacities are currently underway.

Yet what the numbers don’t capture is how we live while we're here and after we leave. Our students, faculty and staff are engaged. They are passionate about being here. We are equally passionate about educating the whole person to shape better citizens of the world.

That has been our focus for over 150 years: life, living, always improving.

We Acknowledge

The University of Guelph resides on the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We recognize that today this gathering place is home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples and acknowledging them reminds us of our collective responsibility to the land where we learn and work.
