About Mechanical Engineering Department

The main objective of the Department is to produce self-reliant and confident graduates who can bring their academic and practical backgrounds to bear on the problems of industry, the larger Nigerian society and the world. The Department runs a five-year programme leading to the award of Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng) in Mechanical Engineering. The academic programme has been planned to challenge and encourage students towards developing ingenuity and originality in problem solving. The cornerstone of this is an early grounding in the basic engineering sciences and a strong emphasis on applied design in later years. The curriculum is designed to equip graduates of the Mechanical Engineering programme with the intellectual capacity (to apply the principles of engineering physics, mathematics, materials science and engineering problem-solving techniques) and relevant contemporary skills; offer students skills that are highly sought after and highly remunerated in industry; prepare graduates to undertake the challenge of working on a wide range of projects, with the prospect of working with a broad spectrum of other professionals; and develop successful careers as mechanical engineers and apply their mechanical engineering education to address the full range of technical and societal problems with professional engineering competence, creativity, imagination, confidence and responsibility. It is equipped with the state-of-the-art teaching, laboratory and workshop facilities which are essential for training students in Mechanical Engineering. We invite you to join us.
