The Program is designed to provide the students with the scientific and professional provisions of the Mechanical Engineering profession. The Program constitutes a balance between the academic and the practical directions. The program provides practical experience in the use of modern engineering instruments and reinforced understanding through computerized and other experimentation. It prepares its graduates for direct employment as mechanical engineers and lays the foundation for further education.

Specialization in Oil & Gas Engineering

The aim of the BSc in Mechanical Engineering with a specialization in Oil and Gas is to serve both the Upstream and Downstream Oil and Gas Production and therefore prepare professionals to work in hydrocarbon exploration and processing, with knowhow in drilling and reservoir characterization, analysis and design of pipeline systems, industrial process (refineries and petrochemicals) and simulations, as members of multi-disciplinary teams.
