Overview
This programme offers a robust combination of mechanical engineering fundamentals and emerging digital technologies to ensure strong industry relevance and future readiness. Through a balanced curriculum comprising core engineering science, digital tools, and hands-on projects, students will develop the skills needed to design, develop, and enhance mechanical systems with integrated digital technologies.
As they progress, students will gain exposure to key areas such as automation, IoT applications, computer-aided engineering, machine learning, and industrial data analysis. Emphasis is placed on practical application through lab work, prototyping, final year projects, and the option of Work-Based Learning, allowing students to engage with real-world engineering practices.
By combining technical knowledge with digital tools and industry engagement, the programme prepares graduates to contribute effectively to the development and optimisation of modern mechanical systems across a wide range of industries.
Bachelor of Digital Mechanical Technology with Honours
Where Mechanics Meet the Digital Frontier
Step into the future of engineering with the Bachelor of Digital Mechanical Technology with Honours, a forward-looking programme designed to develop technologists who can integrate mechanical systems with cutting-edge digital solutions. Grounded in strong mechanical engineering fundamentals including design, statics, dynamics, materials, and manufacturing, this degree evolves to incorporate advanced technologies such as automation, robotics, artificial intelligence, industrial IoT, and data-driven engineering.
The programme places a strong emphasis on practical, project-based learning, supported by hands-on prototyping, simulation tools, and industry-standard software. Students gain real experience through courses in computer programming, system dynamics, machine vision, machine learning, and AR/VR data visualisation, bridging the gap between traditional mechanical systems and intelligent digital ecosystems.
The final year offers flexibility for students to either continue with a conventional on-campus mode or opt for the Work-Based Learning (2u1i) pathway, which blends academic learning with direct industry involvement.
Whether you're passionate about intelligent factory systems, industrial automation, or digitally enhanced mechanical design, this programme provides a dynamic platform to innovate, create, and shape the future of mechanical technology.
This programme is recognised by the Malaysian Board of Technologists (MBOT), providing graduates with professional recognition that enhances their credentials in the competitive field of digital mechanical technology.
What is 2U1I?
2U1I stands for 2 years in University and 1 Year in Industry, structured Work-Based Learning (WBL) model designed to intensify industry exposure and produce workforce-ready graduates. Students who choose this pathway will complete their final year in an approved industry setting, where they work on real-world projects under industrial supervision. Academic credits are earned through industry-delivered modules and performance assessments. The experience equips students with practical skills, deeper technical insights, and a competitive edge in the job market.
Eligibility for WBL:
- Completion of ALL Year 1 and 2 subjects, including MPU requirements.
- Fulfilment of any additional requirements specified by industry partners.
