The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering offers broad-based degree programs complemented by a wide range of research activities. We are committed to excellence in teaching, research, and in providing service to the community. The Department offers two undergraduate majors; Industrial and Systems Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. We also provide several graduate study opportunities in our Masters and Ph.D programs. The department has excellent specialized laboratories, workshop and computing facilities in various disciplines, and is comprised of an outstanding team of faculty members and supporting staff.
Many of our academics are widely recognized international authorities in their respective areas of expertise and are actively engaged in both scholarly activities as well as creating a conducive and creative environment suitable for a pleasant student learning and teaching experience. Students of the department get the opportunity to gain first-hand exposure to real-world engineering problems that, along with their classroom and laboratory work, prepare them with the life-long learning skills that make them attractive recruits to employers after graduation. They participate in out of class activities like the ‘Shell Eco Marathon’ competition and the ‘Life is Engineering’ program.
Students receive support to attend international conferences and to visit other universities overseas. Both our Industrial and Systems Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commissions; EAC of ABET,
