The Mechanical Engineering Department offers exciting programs. Our programs are highly practical; thus our graduates are ready to be absorbed by industry on graduation. The department has three well-equipped workshops and several laboratories where practical training is conducted. The Mechanical Drafting Lab has a mini- CNC machine for demonstrations in Computer Aided Manufacture (CAM) and solid works.<\/p>\n

The college has links with industry and other organizations, both local and international and these help the department in areas such as the acquisition of training equipment and materials, and curriculum development to meet modern trends.<\/p>\n

We look forward to having you enroll with us.<\/p>\n
