Bachelor of Science in MechanicalEngineeringDescriptionMechanical engineering is one of the broadest and oldest branches of engineering and can require work thatranges from the design and manufacture of very fine and sensitive instruments with micro and nano scales,to the design and fabrication of huge power plants. The ME program emphasizes a fundamental approach toengineering in which the student learns to identify needs, define problems and apply basic principles andtechniques to obtain a solution. This philosophy is incorporated in the classroom lectures, laboratoryactivities, design projects and research. ME graduates are expected to deal with moving devices and complexsystems. Students learn about materials, design, manufacturing, solid and fluid mechanics, thermodynamics,heat transfer, control, and instrumentation, to understand mechanical systems. Specialized ME subjectsinclude energy conversion, energy management, air conditioning, turbumachinery, composite materials andmaterials processing, combustion, fracture mechanics, selected topics in mechatronics and vibration, controlengineering, introduction to robotics, selected topics in manufacturing and design, maintenance engineering,biomechanics and selected topics in bioengineering.

Program Objectives1. Serve UAE industries by providing qualified mechanical engineering graduates equipped with a broad-

based knowledge of mechanical engineering, related principles, theories and applications.2. Provide UAE industries with graduates capable of designing, analyzing, testing and implementing

mechanical systems and processes.3. Meet industry expectations for graduates with skills including communication skills, use of modern

engineering tools, ability to perform well in teams, and commitment to life-long learning.4. Increase graduates’ commitment to highest standards of ethical practice and to social and

environmental issues relevant to engineering profession.5. Provide the program graduates with awareness of the tools and skills necessary for participating

effectively in building a healthy, diverse and sustainable UAE economy.

Program Learning OutcomesUpon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:

1. An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, calculus based sciences and engineering to MechanicalEngineering

2. An ability to design and conduct experiments as well as to analyze and interpret data3. An ability to design thermal and mechanical systems, component or processes to meet desired needs4. An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams5. An ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems6. An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility7. An ability to communicate effectively with written, oral and visual means8. The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global and

societal context and a knowledge of contemporary issues.9. A recognition of the need for and ability to engage in life-long learning

10. An Ability to use modern engineering techniques, skills and computing tools necessary for engineeringpractice

11. Familiarity with statistics and linear algebra12. A recognition of the need for and an ability to engage in entrepreneurial activities.
