MISSION
The department of Mechanical Engineering shall produce a group of professionals who are able to showcase a mastery of the theories and principles of Mechanical Engineering and are able to set a standard of their moral integrity and honesty in their work.
VISION
Provide the student the technical education and training in the field of design, operation manufacture and maintenance of power consuming machinery and devices and to enhance the student’s personality, not only his/her basic and applied knowledge, but also his/her attitudes by instilling good moral and spiritual values and proper work ethics.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Mechanical Engineering is a profession that concerns itself with mechanical design, energy conversion, fuel and combustion technologies, heat transfer, materials, noise control and acoustics, manufacturing processes, rail transportation, automatic control, product safety and reliability, solar energy, and technological impacts to society. Mechanical Engineers study the behavior of materials when forces are applied to them, such as the behavior of materials when forces are applied to them, such as the motion of solids, liquids and gases and heating and cooling of objects and machines. Using these basic building blocks, mechanical engineers design space vehicles, computers, and power plants, intelligent machines and robots, automobiles, trains, airplanes, furnaces, and air-conditioners. Mechanical engineers work on jet engine design, submarines, hot air balloons, textiles and new materials, medical and hospital equipment, and refrigerators and other home appliances. Anything that is mechanical or must interact with another machine or human being is within the broad scope of mechanical engineering.
