The Department of Mechanical Engineering (MNE) aims to educate and train students to be professional engineers, providing them with broad-based knowledge and the fundamentals of mechanical and nuclear engineering, and the capability to integrate the diverse disciplines of mechanical, electronic and computer engineering. To achieve these aims, the Department takes an interdisciplinary approach and includes subject areas that ensure our graduates are equipped to meet Hong Kong's current and future needs.
The Department currently offers majors in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Nuclear and Risk Engineering. It has over 25 faculty members, with academic strengths in four specific areas: (1) thermal-fluids; (2) design, mechanics and materials; (3) robotics, automation and control; and (4) nuclear and risk engineering.

Our Target |
The aim of the Mechanical Engineering major is to prepare students with solid, fundamental knowledge to meet the needs of industries. Our graduates are expected to serve and contribute to a broad range of mechanical engineering industries in their future careers, working for instance as chartered engineers, chief administrators/managers of technical teams, and technology consultants. Some of them may even choose to be entrepreneurs for their own start-up companies. The objectives of the major are to:
|
Start Your Career Here |
Mechanical engineering is a fundamental branch of engineering. It fulfils the rapid demands of the expanding consumer products and infrastructural development markets and other engineering areas such as automation engineering, dynamical and control analysis, engineering design, and materials/product testing. The Mechanical Engineering major will help you to develop a comprehensive and dynamic knowledge-set; flexible analytical and quantitative skills to tackle scientific and engineering problems; independent and critical thinking to develop/enhance engineering products; and integrated creativity and expertise to generate novel product designs to support the sustainable development of industries. |
Industrial Training and International Exchange |
The College of Engineering and the Department offer work placement opportunities through various internship schemes that provide students with full-time job attachments in firms not only in Hong Kong, but also in the Pearl River Delta region and overseas. Through such placements, students will:
For details, please visit the College's Co-operative Education Centre's website. Furthermore, for students to broaden their educational horizons, gain language experience and enhance their awareness of different cultures, the Department, College and University offer a number of credit-bearing exchange programmes with various partner institutions around the world including universities in Australia, Canada, Europe, the US and the Asia-Pacific region. Please visit CityU's website and the Department's website for details of outbound exchange programmes. |
Professional Recognition |
This major has been granted full accreditation by the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE), a signatory member of the Washington Accord under which all members agree to recognise each other's accredited Engineering degree programmes.
