About this course: <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p style="margin-bottom: 0.3em"> </p> <p>This course will provide you with the practical skills and knowledge in electrical machinery, mechanical principles and mechanical equipment to produce drawings for design specifications. </p> <p>Gaining a range of computer aided drafting (CAD) skills, you will be able to interpret and create drawings components for the manufacture of equipment. Learning about fluid power will give you the skills and knowledge to set up and connect hydraulic equipment. </p> <p>The Diploma of Engineering - Technical (Mechanical) shares the same first semester with the Diploma of Engineering - Technical (Mechatronics). In simple terms, mechanical and mechatronics have many common elements, but as the name suggests mechanical is more geared toward mechanical design but does have some electrical, electronics and programming content.</p> <p>You can always switch streams between the two by choosing the correct electives.  </p> <p>Mechanical engineering is applied across a wide variety of employment areas including: </p> <ul><li>Mining and mineral processing </li><li>Manufacturing </li><li>Oil and gas industry </li><li>Automotive industry </li><li>Aviation and shipbuilding industries </li><li>Electrical power generation and distribution </li><li>Road and rail transport </li><li>Defence </li><li>Agriculture, fishing and food processing </li></ul></div></div></div>
