Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest, oldest, and most versatile engineering professions. It is at the heart of the design, development, and manufacturing of every product we have today. The Mechanical Engineering Program is a four-year study that provides students with a broad scientific and technical background in this field. During the first three semesters, there is a focus on mathematics and basic sciences—physics and chemistry. The following three semesters include courses and labs that are more specialized and closely related to mechanical engineering, including manufacturing, mechanics of solids, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and thermodynamics. In the final semesters of their study, students take advanced courses in mechanical engineering, undergo an eight-week practical training, and complete senior design projects. The Mechanical Engineering Program at the University of Sharjah puts what is in the best interest of students first and foremost. Every little experience the student attains represents a block in the building of a competent, confident, purposeful, problem-solving, competitive, responsible, and conscientious individual. This is accomplished using a curriculum and facilities that conform to the highest of standards, faculty members committed to the academic and personal growth of the student, and an environment that inspires learning and drives creativity.
Mechanical Engineers possess a diverse set of skills highly sought after across various professions. They can pursue careers in a multitude of industrial sectors, enterprises, and services, including power generation and distribution, building and construction, medicine and pharmacology, aerospace, automotive, chemicals, computers and electronics, renewable energy, entertainment, water resources, sports, environmental institutions, and government. Importantly, mechanical engineers have the ability to envision and create what never existed before, contributing to the advancement of mankind. With innovation and entrepreneurship, they can tap into endless possibilities to shape the future. Moreover, mechanical engineering provides an excellent foundation for careers in business management and consulting.
