Post-Secondary Research Project-Mechanical Engineering

Technology at UBCBy: Andrea

Subject: D.C 8

The program is 5 years to finish for mechanical engineering at UBC for a degree

The program can be completed either in a longer or short time depending on the choices you make and the career you choose

The program is divided into semesters in which case 2-3 semesters per year The courses that are required is science courses like chemistry, math,

physical education ( how to handle the objects when bringing/making materials), also English. You must complete all of the subjects, have good grades and must have 36 credentials for the first year, in order to pass first year and move on

Some of the electives is design and technology like information technology, Technology education-those sort of things\

There is an on-the-job program but, you must be at the 3-5th year of engineering so you can start

The on-the-job-component is paid, it doesn't include in studies, it is just a way to get money for themselves

Mechanical engineering is a complete program you can finish to get a degree and graduate, you can extend 2 more years to get a master degree

Please Describe the program you plan to pursue

For two year program you will get a diploma saying that you finish two years of experience and work.

The credentials you will get is a degree once you have finished the 5 years, but if extended for 2 years you can get a maters degree

What kind of credentials will you receive once you completed the

program

The tuition fee is $5,705.35/yr. x5 Supplies like books, lab studio is $800/yr. x5 B.C health plan is $648/yr. x 5 Person and household is$2,100/yr. x5 Entertainment is $600/yr. x5 Software and gadgets is $1000/yr. x5 Room, Board, Food is 12,000/yr. x5 Estimated cost is $29,200.00 total for 5 years

Achieve a final grade of 4 or better Achieve all certificates in the first year Skills may be anything related like computer

decoder, first aid, builder or designer

Describe the selection process

The program is preparing you to learn for building and design, math problem of building and designing, business with other companies and more

There are a lot of skills that you can use for mechanical engineering First-Aid Being a builder/designer of good technology

and such Or just a simple person who knows a lot of

tools, designs, ideas, and more

What kind of employment outcomes are there upon

completion of this program

I think that I would be a good candidate because I like jobs that would include something with technology also I have some interest in mechanical engineering because some experiences with my parents work

I like thinking of things that could be helpful for mechanical engineering

Also have skills that possibly can be useful for mechanical engineering

Before grade 5 I have already been thinking about mechanical engineering that is already interesting to me and I have been studying about schools, mechanical engineering activities and others

I have worked really hard on the grades on other assignments and that I think I am capable of completing the program and pass and get a degree or even a masters degree

Do you think you are a good candidate why or why not?
