Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineering is an important engineering field that provides all kinds of mechanical equipment and manufacturing technology for national economic construction and social development to create material wealth and improve the level of social civilization. It is closely related to human social activities and widely used.

Mechanical engineering, formerly known as mechanical engineering and automation, was renamed mechanical engineering in 2013 due to the setting requirements about major of the Ministry of education(?). The major was established in 1996 after integrating the original majors and directions including locomotive and vehicle engineering, mechanical and electronic engineering, heat engine and refrigeration, vehicle and application engineering, and enrolled 150 undergraduates every year.

Training objectives of Mechanical Engineering: to meet the development needs of modern manufacturing industry, to have good humanistic and social science literacy and sustainable development potential, to master solid basic knowledge of mathematics, foreign languages, physics and computer applications, to have special knowledge and skills of mechanical design, manufacturing and automation, engineering practice ability, and have international vision and team cooperation ability, Senior engineering and technical personnel who can engage in design and manufacturing, technology development, application research and operation management in the field of mechanical engineering in scientific research institutes and production enterprises.

The specialty construction relies on the national first-class discipline of mechanical engineering, with strong teachers and good discipline reputation. Among the 102 Universities Participating in the evaluation in 2012, the overall level of the discipline ranks 29th.

Relying on the national Mechanical Engineering Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center, this major carries out a large number of experimental teaching, and arranges four integrated practical teaching links, including mechanical principle scheme design, mechanical system innovation design, modern manufacturing technology and mechanical and electrical system design, which run through the main teaching line of this major. The project-based teaching method is adopted to comprehensively cultivate students' engineering practice ability, teamwork spirit and innovation ability. In college, I organized students to participate in the National College Students Mechanical Product digital Design Competition, mechanical Innovation design competition and robot competition, and students are very interested in learning.

In addition to learning the public foundation of engineering such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, English and computer, students also need to learn the professional basic courses such as theoretical mechanics, material mechanics, Fundamentals of engineering drawing, mechanical principle, mechanical design, mechanical manufacturing technology, metalworking practice, cognition practice and mechanical creative practice. On this basis, in order to meet the personalized training requirements, the specialty has set up special elective courses such as mechanical innovative design, computer-aided three-dimensional design, computer-aided design and manufacturing, manufacturing equipment and its automation technology, mechatronics technology, robot technology and so on.

The specialty pay attention to broaden students' international vision, attaches great importance to cultivate students' ability to compete in the international environment, over the years, with the United States at purdue university, northern Illinois university, the university of Auckland, French INSA Lyon university, Sweden's royal institute of technology and the university of leuven in Belgium and other international well-known universities establish long-term mutual recognition of credits, double degree program; Many well-known scholars from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Tokyo, RWTH Aachen University and Cheng Kung University in Taiwan are employed as consultant professors. They carry out student exchange and short-term exchange and establish good cooperative relations.In addition to learning the public foundation of engineering such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, English and computer, students also need to learn the professional basic courses such as theoretical mechanics, material mechanics, Fundamentals of engineering drawing, mechanical principle, mechanical design, mechanical manufacturing technology, metalworking practice, cognition practice and mechanical creative practice. On this basis, in order to meet the personalized training requirements, the specialty has set up special elective courses such as mechanical innovative design, computer-aided three-dimensional design, computer-aided design and manufacturing, manufacturing equipment and its automation technology, mechatronics technology, robot technology and so on.

The employment rate of graduates of this major has been maintained at more than 97%. Graduates can engage in scientific research, product development and management in scientific research institutes, modern manufacturing enterprises, high-tech industry companies and government agencies in mechanical design and manufacturing, mechanical electronics, information technology and related fields, such as Changchun Railway Passenger Car Co., Ltd., Qingdao Sifang Railway Vehicle Co., Ltd., China Aerospace Science and technology group, China shipbuilding group Beijing metro operation company, Beijing Hyundai Motor Group, BAIC Foton Motor Co., Ltd., Beijing railway bureaus and various military groups, etc.

The further study rate of students reached 33%. Students have a wide range of postgraduate studies. In addition to pursuing master's and doctoral degrees in mechanical design and theory, mechanical manufacturing and automation, mechanical and electronic engineering, vehicle engineering, safety science and engineering, transportation tools and application engineering, material science and engineering, industrial engineering and other majors of Beijing Jiaotong University, You can also be escorted or admitted to Tsinghua University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
