Education

Bachelor's degree, Mechanical Engineering Technology
  • at University of Southern Queensland
  • November 2013

• BS Mechanical Engineering Technology, University of Southern Queensland (USQ), Toowoomba, Australia Major Courses completed: • Solid Modelling: Aims to develop the student's awareness to the importance of the modelling as a design, drafting, communication and manufacturing tool. • Stress Analysis: Addresses stability and strength of stru ctures and machines while under load. It also predicts how force is carried through a structure or machine and how the materials will behave within the structure when resisting the force. • Machine Dynamics: Develops at an appropriate level, theoretical and practical methods used in the design of any machine components. • Design of Machine Elements: Aims to integrate the knowledge that is required to focus in analytical skills towards synthesis of solutions by working through the designing processes of several simple, commonly used machines and devices. • System Design: This course led me to an understanding of the philosophy and methodology of the design process in the context of systems that embrace political, sociological, economic, technical and ergonomic asp ects. It then provided practice through assignments and workshops in developing my ability to distinguish the relevant factors and design accordingly to interact with a design, and to communicate ideas and concepts through oral and written presentations. • Engineering Management: Develops an understanding of the basic principles of management and their applications in engineering organizations. Teaches the need of the appreciation of the social environment within which the engineer will practice, particularly the aspects of the law and ethics pertaining to the engineering profession. • Production Engineering: Provides methods and solutions for any manufacturing firm in terms of rearranging the physical facilities related or within this firm to provide an environ ment, which is inductive to efficient and fast transformation. • Materials Technology: Provides the knowledge that is demonstrated through systematic exploration, evaluation, synthesis, and application in material selection and failure analysis processes of materials.  Introduction to Thermo-fluids: This course presents the fundamental concepts of fluid behavior under static and dynamic conditions and helps engineers to understand the behavior of fluids for, amongst other things; they have the professional task of employing them in the massive technological field of energy conversion. This course is designed to give the engineer the ability to analyze many practical problems in which fluid is the working medium.
