Mechanical power engineering program
For section
About Section
Grew Mechanical Power Engineering Department at the beginning of the emergence of the college under the name of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and design of power in 1976. Then modified the internal regulations of the faculty in 1989/1990 and became the name of the section Mechanical Power Engineering Department.
Mission
To prepare specialized engineers who are able to innovate and meet the requirements of local, regional, and international labor markets in the fields of mechanical power engineering as well as researchers who can publish applied research which solves the problems of society, environment, and industry and achieves sustainable development. This is accomplished through paying attention to the quality of educational process, continuous training, and cooperation with governmental institutions.
(Goals)
-
