Mechanical Engineering

including all awards in mechanical engineering and naval architecture.  The research in this discipline falls within the Flinders Institute for Biomedical Engineering Research (FIBER) and the Centre for Maritime Electronics, Control and Imaging (CMECI).  The discipline will be led by Professor Mark Taylor when he starts in March (Dr John Costi pro tem).

 

Other Awards

Some of our activities and awards span multiple disciplines and thus do not fit neatly under any single discipline.  These include Business and Technology, Civil Engineering and Engineering Science.
