What does Mechanical Engineering look like as a student

Hello everyone,

I'm in Year 12, choosing to study in Swinburne next year taking a course in Mechanical Engineering (professional degree) and it's because I enjoy physics and mathematical applications of theory and such and I am deeply interested in a lot of the world's mechanics, man-made and natural.

I would really love to know how the course feels like through a student perspective while also just understanding what the first-year content would look like and if I would enjoy it ultimately benefiting from it

Any information would really help

Thank you!
