Bachelor of Science in Chemical, Civil, Mechanical, and Mechanical & Mechatronic Engineering at Cape town university

Mechatronic Engineering is a new discipline that combines many of the skills of a mechanical engineer with those of a computer engineer and an electrical engineer. The mechatronic engineering graduate is prepared to design “intelligent” products such as “jitter-free” camcorders, active vehicle suspension systems that adjust to road conditions, anti-lock braking systems, and laser printers.

What is a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering?

Chemical engineering is one of the most broadly based engineering disciplines. Its field of practice covers the development, design, and control of processes and products that involve molecular change, both chemical and biological, and the operation of such processes.

What is a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering?

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE

Civil engineers fuse science and engineering with art and design to build and maintain roads, bridges, water reservoirs and a variety of other public works.

Does civil engineering require math?

Most civil engineering programs require courses in linear algebra and differential equations.

Students typically take these courses after completing calculus

2. Differential equations, taken after calculus 3, is a more advanced mathematics course required by some civil engineering programs.

Is there a BA in mechanical engineering?

A bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering can prepare one to both get a job and work as an engineer and to go onto graduate school. Students who wish to pursue the first option should consider the experiential learning opportunities offered by each program.
