Faculty of Engineering / Department of Mechanical Engineering and System Design
Preface
The four-year undergraduate program aims to impart basic knowledge across the broad spectrum of engineering. In the first and second years, the curriculum has students study math, physics, and basic information processing, all of which are the basics of mechanical engineering.
In subsequent years, the Department of Mechanical Engineering offers specialized lectures in four categories related to research in the field of mechanical engineering: the dynamics of materials and machines, information and control, energy and flow, and design and production.
It also prepares lectures in two categories aimed at cultivating overall quality in engineers: engineer ethics and technical English, as well as general studies and creation.
