Engineering is the art of applying the
knowledge of science for the benefit of humanity. Mechanical
Engineering is the most broadly based area of engineering. It
includes the science and art of the formulation, design, analysis,
development, manufacturing and control of the systems and machines.
Central to the profession is the importance of innovation and of
creating new technologies and products.
The mission of the undergraduate curriculum is to prepare its graduates to meet the challanges
associated with their particular career paths, and to adapt to the rapidly
changing technologies. The
curriculum
includes a variety of courses covering
subjects in the Thermal and Fluid Sciences, Materials Sciences, Design and
Production, Theory of Machines and Control Systems, as well as intensive
design and laboratory works. The curriculum is structered to provide the
students with technical skills, engineering insights and problem solving
abilities, and to prepare its graduates as educated, responsible,
environmentally sensible citizens.
In addition to teaching, the Department’s faculty are actively involved in
research sponsored by the public and private sectors. The faculty’s
research provides the motivation for undergraduate students to attend
graduate school for advance degrees, which is one of the main targets of IZTECH.
