Undergraduate Programs

BEng. Mechanical Engineering

About this program

BEng Mechanical Engineering program is a four year degree program for those who want to gain knowledge in mechanical engineering to pursue a career in industry or continue in graduate studies. The degree is awarded after the successful completion of 132 credit hours of undergraduate work, including a compulsory industrial internship and Capstone project. Students can study the core Mechanical Engineering program or select one of the program concentrations listed below to satisfy the requirements for the BEng degree in Mechanical Engineering:

BEng. Mechanical Engineering (Concentrations)

1. Industrial Automation and Control

This concentration is developed in line with Oman’s Manufacturing Strategy so that it will aid in identifying and developing automation and controls knowledge and techniques used in the industry with a focus on the ever-increasing demands of manufacturing, oil, and gas engineering process and linked to 4IR. The courses are developed to aid to instill knowledge of programming of PLC Systems, high-level programming language, development of industrial automation production systems and control, and Robotics in manufacturing industries.

2. Energy Systems Engineering

This concentration is developed in line with the Oman National priorities viz. Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability. The concentration drives by the application of conserving techniques and renewable energy sources for reduced energy consumption. It deals with the design and development of technologies for harvesting renewable energy resources, energy storage technologies and conserving techniques, energy audit, energy economics, and energy efficiency approaches to remain competitive.

The ABET compliant Mechanical Engineering program curriculum is integrated with national priorities of the sultanate of Oman vision 2040 by providing high quality teaching to nurture professional, competitive, and innovative talents in our learners. There are many staff with PhD holders who deliver the modules for this program. In addition, 30% of staff under this program are Omanis. There are many opportunities for the students in this program for capacity building and other co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.

Extracurricular Opportunities

The students have a plethora of opportunities to engage with established student chapters of professional bodies which aim to expose the students to international professionals to have the benefits of updating with recent technological news and to interact with engineers and professionals across the world. Open opportunities to be a member of reputable international professional bodies under this program are:

  • The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)
  • American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
  • Institution of Mechanical Engineers

Student chapter professional bodies are actively involved in conducting symposiums, workshops, conferences, keynote lectures, guest lectures, debates, and Talent group meetings for the benefit of the student’s community.

Career Opportunities

The mechanical engineering graduates will pursue their career in the fields and occupations as practicing engineers, entrepreneurs, teachers and researchers. Most often, they find employment opportunities in the mechanical industries relating to their specialization, as CAD/ Design engineers, inventory/planning engineers, installation and operation engineers, maintenance engineers and shop floor/production engineers. The engineering program transforms their learning experience and skills to develop successful careers and practice mechanical engineering and allied fields of study in a broad range of industries. They would also strive to pursue advanced education, research and development, and other creative and innovative efforts in science, engineering, and technology to take part in the nation-building initiatives.
