The Department of Mechanical Engineering carries out education and research in a way that trains engineers who benefit from a broad general education and possess advanced, specialized knowledge so that they can contribute to human happiness and social welfare by taking advantage of practical application skills and rich creativity through manufacturing(by creating machines).
In keeping with that philosophy, the Department pursues human resources development in a way that yields engineers who, through their keen observational skills and broad knowledge, are able to take bold action to precisely analyze and solve problems.
To that end, first-year students study the basic subjects they'll need in order to master specialized knowledge as well as specialized courses designed to foster mechanical knowhow.
Specialized courses are grouped into five principal fields―Strength of Materials, Fluid Engineering, Thermal Engineering, Manufacturing Science, and System Dynamics and Control―and students learn in an organic and systematic manner as they progress through the program while moving from the basics to application.
