COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING
The Mechanical Engineering Department in the College of Engineering offers a single major track program, the 'Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering.' The program (Curriculum Version 12 & 13) spans five years, divided into ten semesters. The first two semesters constitute a common first-year program before delving into core academic subjects within the department. Although there are no alternative tracks offered by the department, there are two main fields in the program where the student can specialize and meet the career opportunities in the field of mechanical engineering. The first one is the area of production/design engineering which includes materials science, design, manufacturing, etc. The second one is the area of power/energy engineering such as thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics etc. The program adheres to the standards set by the National Centre for Academic Assessment and Evaluation (NCAAA) and the (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) ABET, ensuring continuous improvement. It is accredited by both NCAAA and ABET until 2026.
