The Department of Mechanical Engineering is very proud to present the students' achievements section. An overview of student life and recognition of their involvement in society, academics, and sports.
Integrative projects (case studies) let students practice their academic fundamentals. Future engineers are involved in all steps of project management and problem-solving in Mechanical Engineering.
They allow students to question, innovate and further challenge their thoughts.
Furthermore, our pedagogical leadership promotes their success, while retaining their independence in the project.
As you can see, many of those projects demonstrated multidisciplinarity, responding to the needs of both the customer and society:
All Polytechnique Montréal students are welcomed in technical teams. Our department supports six of them.
Here, teamwork and technical work are useful in order to take part in international competition. They push beyond engineering limits and acquire experience in Management, Design, and Marketing. Lastly, it's a way for students to see if they would like to pursue graduate studies or create a company!

Thanks to the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering (CSME), each year the department presents Gold Medals from CSME. The medals are awarded by CSME Sustaining Members (ME departments) to students for Outstanding Academic Achievement in Mechanical Engineering.
