Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering
Barcelona East School of Engineering (EEBE)
The bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, provides a solid grounding in the design, development and use of machinery; mechanical processes and systems; criteria for the selection of materials; and the structural design of production systems and processes. You will acquire the knowledge needed to analyse, calculate, design and test machines, industrial installations, hydraulic and thermal engines, industrial structures and constructions, and production systems. You will also receive multidisciplinary training in fluid mechanics, thermal technology, electricity, automation, the design and construction of industrial HVAC systems, and graphic engineering techniques.
