Department of Mechanical Engineering (ME)
Mechanical Engineering is universally considered as the cornerstone of almost all fields of engineering science.
The various disciplines of mechanical engineering are ubiquitous, not only in simple to complex applications of industry but also in our quotidian everyday life. Therefore, any engineering educational program should take into account the inherent multi-disciplinary characteristics of mechanical engineering major.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering of Dhaka University of Engineering & Technology has undergone through several stages of evolution and progress since its establishment in 1980. Today, congruent with 21st century’s requirements and in harmony with modern branches of science, such as Nanotechnology or Bio-Mechanics, Mechatronics and emergence of modern methods of education such as virtual or e-learning and long life self-learning skills, the mechanical engineering curricula has been programmed based on new paradigms and futuristic visions in order to prepare engineers for confronting the societal and ethical aspects of their professional life and the challenges of modern technologies.
The Department’s academic program can be divided basically into undergraduate and graduate education. It has always tried to keep a well-defined and logical balance between endeavors towards both undergraduate and graduate programs. In undergraduate level, the program is focused on educating and training qualified engineers to commence their profession on industrial sector and service/commercial sector with high management and leadership skills.
The graduate program leads to M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in basic disciplines of mechanical engineering and various multi-disciplinary fields. The Department has tried to maintain a dynamic and adaptive policy in graduate program in order to keep up with domestic industry’s research and development needs and rapid global technological progress. The faculty members and research staffs are developing cutting-edge projects that include, nanotechnology, biomechanics, bio-fluids, manufacturing, energy engineering, simulation and modeling, high-performance parallel computation, renewable energies from both thermo-fluid and solid mechanics aspects.
The number of publications of the faculty has increased considerably in the last decade and estimate that the department participation in the production of science will continue to accelerate progressively year after year. This website is designed for two main purposes. The first goal of it is to introduce or present our various capabilities and potentials in developing and conducting academic programs of education in Mechanical Engineering to general scholar public.
The second purpose is to build a platform where the Bangladeshi or foreign-based students, industry experts or independent researchers could find useful links that may help them in their research endeavors and to maintain a bridge of collaboration and cooperation between scholars and industrial experts on national and international level.
