Mechanical Engineering Program Mission

The mission of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at 麻豆视频 is to provide high-quality education and meaningful career opportunities for its graduates. Highly competent graduates who can assume professional positions of increasing responsibility are the intended end product. Recruiting and educating students in an accredited curriculum of course work and experiences will accomplish the mission. Demand for graduates of the department will be enhanced by frequent contact with potential employers through initiatives such as co-op programs, consultations, research and development, and student projects. The outcome of the goals of the mission will be assessed by frequent contact with the employers, alumni and other intended sources. Corrective actions will be taken, as necessary, based on the input provided, to minimize deviation from the stated mission. 

Vision

The vision of the mechanical engineering department at 麻豆视频 is to be a leader in training students for the mechanical engineering profession. The mechanical engineer may be perceived as one who is engaged in a diverse profession encompassing the analysis, design, synthesis and material optimization for a wide variety of mechanical and thermal systems. The mechanical engineer must work closely with other engineering disciplines to provide tools and equipment components to enable them to practice their professions. In order to cover this wide range of requirements, the mechanical engineer needs a solid foundation in basic sciences, mathematical sciences and engineering.
