Faculty of Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering

The year 2025 marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Department of Department of Mechanical Engineering.

Message from the Dean

Dean of the Faculty of Engineering of Department of Mechanical Engineering

Junji Yoshida

Have you ever had an experience where you were inspired to create something, and felt excited and excited? We focus on education in collaboration with team members, incorporating the knowledge of four forces and control, which is the basis of mechanical engineering, and on manufacturing. By setting somewhat difficult, high-level goals and working hard, your abilities will improve greatly. The world is changing every day. Just try new things! The moment when even pain turns into fun is the best! Seize the day. Carpe Diem.

FeatureFeatures

Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest and most versatile fields of engineering specialization. From everyday IT devices to large structures, mechanical engineering supports all kinds of "manufacturing" and is a fundamental science that is widely necessary for industry, while at the same time being a cutting-edge science that opens up new frontiers in science and technology, such as regenerative medicine and IoT. The Department of Department of Mechanical Engineering aims to produce talented people who will master cutting-edge science and technology to support the "present" of industry and pave the way for the "future," and who will create the future of industry.

  1. Learn a curriculum that can be applied to a wide range of science, technology and industrial fields

    The Department of Department of Mechanical Engineering offers a curriculum that is applicable to a wide range of scientific and technological fields and industrial fields, such as aeronautics and astronautics, robotics, basic control engineering, internal combustion engines, and automotive engineering, based on the so-called "four forces" of fluid mechanics, material mechanics, thermodynamics, and machine mechanics.

  2. Learn the development process through practice

    Project-based learning subjects are offered from the first year onwards.
    We train engineers who have solid skills and knowledge and can meet the needs of society. We also have a "Research Promotion Class" that cultivates research, development and design capabilities.
    It is possible to reach a high level through integrated undergraduate and graduate school and advanced learning.

  3. High social demand from a wide range of fields

    Just as there is not a day that goes by without contact with machines in daily life, there is no company that does not require machines. We have a track record of finding employment not only in manufacturing but also in a wide range of industrial sectors. In addition to finding employment, many students choose to continue on to graduate school. In graduate school, students acquire more specialized knowledge and produce many students who become highly specialized engineers and researchers.

Advanced education through six-year integrated education

Due to the advancement of technology and the resulting specialization, it is becoming difficult to acquire sufficient knowledge and how to apply it in a four-year university education. For this reason, going on to graduate school has become more common in the field of engineering in recent years, and in our department, more than 30% of students are hoping to go on to graduate school this year (as of April 2021).
In light of this current situation, the Department will establish a six-year integrated education "Research Promotion Class" in 2022, aiming to provide more practical education and assuming progression to graduate school. In order to accelerate the learning of students who dream of research and development, the "Research Promotion Class" will provide education that links to research and development positions at major companies through a special curriculum that allows students to study most of their specialized subjects in high-level, small-group classes (fewer than 20 students).
