Mechanical Engineering
Laboratories
Adequate "state of the art" laboratory facilities emphasize computer interaction, the operation and use of instruments, and the experimental approach. Mechanical Engineering laboratories are equipped with laser measurement systems, digital data acquisition systems and test apparati that enable students to study the effects of different parameters on the operation and performance of energy, fluid, aerospace, and other mechanical systems.
