Overview

To align its activities with the latest industrial demands and trends, the ME department is offering a new course-based Master of Engineering (MEng) program in Mechanical Engineering with five concentrations: i) Thermal Sciences, ii) Solid Mechanics, iii) Dynamics and Vibration, iv) Materials and Manufacturing, and v) Renewable Energy.

Key Facts

The motivation for establishing these program options is primarily to enable engineers working in the industry or in governmental agencies to pursue graduate studies in areas of direct relevance to their profession for the purpose of improving their engineering background and technical skills and who are not interested to pursue doctoral degrees.

The Mechanical Engineering program from King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals structure has been designed based on the requirements of the College of Graduate and Interdisciplinary Studies at KFUPM as well as benchmarking with top universities in the USA. The program was further improved based on the input received from ME faculty, alumni, and various departments at KFUPM.
