Welcome to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Jordan! The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level that prepare students for future challenges and opportunities. Since its establishment in 1978, more than 2800 mechanical engineers have graduated.
Our programs include a BSc in Mechanical Engineering (an ABET accredited undergraduate program), an MSc in Mechanical Engineering and an MSc in Renewable Energy
Our graduates, both BSc and MSc, are employed inside Jordan and abroad, mostly in the Gulf States and to a lesser extent in Europe and North America. Many of them finished their post graduate studies and were appointed in well recognized research and academic institutions worldwide.
Our faculty includes renowned scholars in areas of mechanics and materials, thermo-fluids, robotics, and dynamic controls. Furthermore, we now integrate Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision into the design process. We create Human-Machine interface and work in Bio-Mechanics research through senior design projects and departmental research.
Our programs prepare students through series of focused classes in the areas of design, mechanics and materials, and thermal and fluid systems, as well as provide them opportunities to participate in state-of-the art, funded research.
The ME programs prepare students for a wealth of opportunities in virtually all industries including aerospace, automotive, biomedical, energy (wind/solar/petrochemical), heating and cooling systems, machinery, materials, robotics, structures, and many more.
Our goal is to provide the highest quality of education and interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering for the engineers of our future.
