Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering at the University of Waterloo leads to a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), a doctoral-level research degree in the Department of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering. The program combines advanced coursework with original research, preparing students to become problem-solvers and innovators in mechanical systems and electro-mechanical design. Students work within one of five research areas: automation and controls, fluid mechanics, materials engineering and processing, solid-body mechanics and mechanical design, and thermal engineering. Admission normally requires a thesis-based master's degree from a university of recognized standing with a minimum 80% standing and demonstrated research capabilities; applicants without a thesis-based master's must satisfy the department of their ability to conduct independent research. The program is delivered on campus and runs full-time over 48 months, with admission available for the Fall, Winter, and Spring terms. Graduates are prepared for research careers in academia, government, and industry.
