The Mechanical Engineering program provides students with a solid foundation of engineering sciences, including mechanics, strength of materials, materials science, thermodynamics, electricity, and electronics. Among these, knowledge of design, manufacturing, and energy systems is emphasized. This knowledge enables graduates of Mechanical Engineering to design and manufacture components or entire systems; plan production processes; and manage energy utilization for machinery and mechanical/energy systems.
The Mechanical Engineering program at EIU is designed with a balance between theory and practice. Students gain practical exposure and hands-on experience through internships and industry placements. In addition, Mechanical Engineering students develop awareness of social and humanistic issues related to business, environment, government, history, language, culture, and international relations, along with professional responsibility and ethics.
Specialization tracks in Mechanical Engineering include:
Mechanical Design: Provides comprehensive knowledge of physics and engineering sciences, along with training in information synthesis, modeling skills (CAD), and computer-aided analysis (CAE) to develop creative solutions to problems in the field of mechanics. Students are trained in the design process from ideation to detailed design, selection of manufacturing processes, production planning, quality assurance, and product lifecycle management, while considering economic, health, safety, social, environmental, and community factors.
Manufacturing Engineering: Equips students with knowledge and advanced machining techniques such as CNC machining, laser cutting, 3D rapid prototyping, as well as modern measurement and inspection methods integrated into the latest manufacturing software systems. Students have opportunities to practice directly in the university’s advanced manufacturing center. They are also provided with general knowledge in design, materials, control, statistics, and professional responsibility, preparing them for digital manufacturing and enabling them to adapt to ongoing scientific and technological advancements.
Energy Systems: Provides in-depth, application-oriented knowledge to enable students to design and analyze heat transfer systems, energy conversion systems, air conditioning, and other mechanical systems involving heat and fluids. Students specializing in this track are capable of designing equipment, processes, systems, and solutions for energy absorption, conversion, distribution, and storage to meet industrial production as well as societal needs.
