About This Programme

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Gulf countries (GC) have a huge opportunity for graduates in Mechanical Engineering due to the active infrastructure development and remarkable economic growth. An important role in the economy of the UAE/GC is played by the energy sector, construction sector, production of construction materials and metals, water treatment and desalination, as well as textile and food processing industries. In response to these developing sectors and industries, the Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering at the University of Sharjah has developed a Master of Science program in Mechanical Engineering that would contribute to confronting the challenges in these industries. The program will be able to generate new ideas and findings in the Mechanical Engineering field to support the country's development. The proposed MSc in Mechanical Engineering will be able to provide in-depth knowledge on the three tracks, including Thermo-fluids and Water Desalination, Solid Mechanics, and Materials and Manufacturing. The addition of Water Desalination to the thermo-fluid track constitutes a unique aspect in this MSc program. The objective of the program is to graduate engineers who are ready to embark on advanced regional problems, explore new findings, and develop scientific discovery through modern scientific approaches to Mechanical Engineering in order to meet the challenges in solving tomorrow's issues.
