We are an Australian leader in mechanical and automotive engineering research, with the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA 2018) rating RMIT at "above world standard" for mechanical engineering.
We push the limits of the possible in our research areas by employing design thinking, computational simulation, control systems and multi-scale approaches that range from the nanoscale to complex engineering systems.
Our current research is focused on the following areas.
Mechanical engineering
Sustainable energy engineering
Automotive engineering
Sports engineering
We work with a vast range of Australian and global organisations to provide practical, efficient, and economical solutions across civil and defence industries. Our partners include:
Highlights of our current research include:
Our expertise and facilities contribute to many research organisations across Australia.
