Ofrecemos una visión general de las 100 mejores universidades del mundo en ingeniería mecánica según el QS World University Rankings. La ingeniería mecánica es una disciplina muy amplia que abre la puerta a muchos puestos muy bien remunerados y codiciados. Como futuro ingeniero, puedes trabajar con cualquier tipo de dispositivo o sistema mecánico: desde frigoríficos hasta dispositivos biomédicos, desde coches eléctricos hasta robots y todo lo que hay entre medias.
Las universidades líderes mundiales ofrecen programas que se centran en la aplicación de principios matemáticos y científicos de la mecánica clásica para analizar y evaluar el comportamiento de estructuras, fuerzas y materiales en problemas de ingeniería. Los cursos incluyen formación en estática, cinética, dinámica, cinemática y mecánica.
El diploma en ingeniería mecánica ofrece excelentes perspectivas laborales, salarios elevados y es una de las disciplinas más populares entre los estudiantes internacionales.

Las universidades líderes del mundo, donde estudiaron Nikola Tesla, Rudolf Diesel, Felix Wankel y James Watt, son algunos de los mejores lugares donde puedes obtener una licenciatura o un máster en ingeniería mecánica.
