I. GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering Technology is developed with an application-oriented direction, providing learners with a solid foundation in natural sciences, mathematics–engineering, as well as fundamental and specialized knowledge in mechanical engineering. Students are trained in the ability to analyze, design, manufacture, operate, maintain, and repair mechanical systems and equipment in various fields such as machine manufacturing, construction machinery, shipbuilding, offshore structures, and rolling stock – metro rail systems.
Alongside specialized knowledge, the program emphasizes essential professional skills including the use of specialized software, technical operations (turning, fitting, welding, CNC machining), teamwork, communication, systems thinking, foreign languages, and information technology. Learners are also equipped with professional ethics, industrial working style, discipline, and lifelong learning abilities to adapt to modern labor environments in the context of digital transformation and the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Upon graduation, students can take on positions such as technical engineers or managers in mechanical enterprises; design, manufacturing, inspection, maintenance, and repair engineers; technical specialists in transportation-related mechanical engineering fields (construction machinery, shipbuilding, offshore structures, rolling stock, metro); or teaching and research positions at universities, colleges, and research institutes. Graduates may also pursue further studies at the master’s or doctoral levels for long-term professional development.
II. CURRICULUM STRUCTURE AND STUDY PLAN
The total volume of the entire program is 165 credits, not including Physical Education (04 credits) and National Defense and Security Education (09 credits).
