With the growing demand for developing alternative and clean energy technologies, as well as ubiquity of system automation and robotics in industrial applications, demand for a new generation of mechanical engineers is expected to rise significantly over the next two decades. From traditional engineering design to cutting edge computer-enabled systems, the Department of Mechanical Engineering at AUD offers undergraduate students a unique opportunity to study toward a bachelor of science in mechanical engineering, with emphasis on three key areas: energy systems; mechatronics and control; and manufacturing engineering. Through their field experience and an interdisciplinary capstone design project, students integrate their technical knowledge, communication skills, and professional education to solve real engineering problems. A broad range of electives, ranging from internal combustion engines and turbomachniery to aerodynamics and robotic systems, prepare our graduates for careers in the industry and for further studies at the postgraduate level.
