Our History
 

The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering was officially established in 1973. It is one of the best known Institution in the country. In 1980, two main departments namely solid mechanics and fluid and heat engineering was formed. In 1993 production and manufacturing engineering was initiated and in 2001, automotive engineering, materials engineering, energy systems departments has been started. Finally, in 2012 based on multidisciplinary cooperation, mechatronics engineering has been established.
