Overview
The Department of Power Mechanics Techniques Engineering deals with systems that generate, transmit and convert power: power stations, engines and turbines, compressors and pumps, refrigeration and air-conditioning, and renewable-energy technologies.
Students study thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, machine design and computer-aided drawing, then apply them to power plants, internal-combustion engines, air-conditioning systems, and solar and wind energy.
Hands-on training in the college’s workshops and laboratories covers operation, maintenance and measurement, complemented by summer training in power stations and factories, so that graduates can run mechanical equipment and improve its efficiency.
Vision
To produce technical engineers the energy and industrial sectors can rely on to operate, develop and improve the efficiency of mechanical systems.
Mission
To prepare technical engineers skilled in thermal, fluid and machine sciences and their applications in power generation, refrigeration, air-conditioning and renewable energy, through practical teaching focused on operation, maintenance, energy efficiency and occupational safety.
