Career
A breadth of career options
There is huge demand for well-rounded mechanical engineers with a finely-tuned understanding of environmental standards and issues. As a graduate you will find employment not only in sectors such as transport and energy, but also across multiple sectors such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals and semiconductors, in utilities, and in other design and manufacturing businesses where engineers are needed to design and maintain complex mechanical systems that are truly sustainable.
Typical roles would include mechanical engineering roles such as:
- Process engineer
- Sustainability engineer
- Sustainable industrial designer
- Renewable energy engineer
- Energy audit engineer
- Project manager
- Energy analyst
“This programme is industry-relevant, but it’s not just designed for industry. It also considers the global challenges we face, and how we can seek to tackle them in a holistic way. Solving these problems is about more than throwing engineering solutions at them. It’s about understanding the root cause and the societal issues as well as the technical analysis.†- Dr Lorna Fitzsimons, Assistant Professor, School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, DCU and programme chair BEng in Sustainable Systems and Energy
