Aims of the programme
The Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering (BE in Mechanical Engineering) programme is designed to produce mechanical engineering graduates for the knowledge-based economy by providing fundamental knowledge and skills required for the practice of mechanical engineering in a broad range of industries. The provision of such education will contribute to enhancing national capacity and capability to develop and lead technological advancement in the field of mechanical engineering.
Graduates of the programme will be equipped with the capacity to systematically apply engineering principles to work situations and develop innovative solutions for mechanical engineering problems.
Further, the programme intends to develop the ability of graduates to analyze, synthesize and design engineering systems through analytical techniques, experimental and laboratory skills and the use of modern engineering simulation and design software tools through the provision of a balance of theory and hands-on experiences.
Learning Outcomes of the Programme
Upon successful completion of the programme, graduates will be able to:
- Analyze mechanical structures and provide correct design.
- Analyze, design, model and draft mechanical components using CAD software.
- Setup, carry out part programming and perform CNC machining
- Design and setup production/manufacturing systems and processes for manufacturing mechanical elements or systems.
- Apply engineering design to provide solutions that meet specified needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability and sustainability.
- Carry out economic analysis of mechanical engineering related projects
- Design and conduct experiments as well as analyze and interpret data
- Supervise the manufacturing processes
- Oversee troubleshooting and maintenance of mechanical and/or electro-mechanical systems or machines.
- Measure various parameters such as pressure, temperature, vibration and interpret the result.
- Carry out basic research in the relevant area.
- Communicate effectively through different mediums for both technical and non-technical audiences.Programme Structure
