Mechanical Engineering
Department of Mechanical Engineering
The department of Mechanical Engineering officially started its activities in 2011 and it is now offering its courses to something about 190 undergraduate and 40 postgraduate students.
Mechanical engineering in general plays an important role in improving the overall quality of life and enhancing the safety and well-being of human beings as well as creating economic prosperity. It can be said that mechanical engineering is the most extensive field of engineering in terms of activities and applications and is in fact an applied part of physics to use the basic concepts of physics and mathematics to study the motion of the forces and forces on it. This filed tries to present a new plan in the field of technology and industry and pave the way for human progress.
