Mechanical Engineering: A field of endless possibilities

Why choose just one career?

“An electrical engineer is expected to know electronics, a computer engineer is expected to understand advanced software. A mechanical engineer is expected to be able to combine everything; to possess a deep knowledge of the basic subjects in addition to sufficient knowledge of all engineering areas and have the ability to integrate them.”



-Professor Oleg Gendelman, Dean of Mechanical Engineering

Program Details

Mechanical engineering is concerned with the design, development, and manufacturing of mechanical systems and processes to advance the modern industry and emerging technologies while taking into account social, environmental, and economic factors. Virtually every object in our lives has been touched by mechanical engineers, from the design of cars, airplanes, sports equipment, sophisticated robots, medical devices, mobile phones, human-machine interfaces, autonomous vehicles and systems, and 3D printing technologies.

Since mechanical engineers are involved with the mechanics of motion and the transfer of energy from one form to another or one place to another, they need to acquire knowledge and experience in the fields of solid and fluid mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, energy development, control, design and manufacturing, and more, along with a combination of basic science with engineering applications.

The Option of Transferring to Regular Technion Programs (in Hebrew)

Students who have successfully completed the first year of the program have the option of transferring into an undergraduate study track in Hebrew offered by other engineering and science faculties at the university, provided that their Hebrew language skills are sufficient and that they obtain the required academic average according to Technion policies. Internal Faculty Transfer Students enrolled in a Technion International program who would like to transfer to another Technion faculty are responsible for inquiring with the faculty in question about its transfer requirements.

*Students can also apply to transfer their Technion credits to a university of their choice.

Academic Program

The BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering is comprised of at least 158.5 academic credits and can be completed in 4 years.

Orientation Week

Commencement Date: August 9, 2023

Attending Orientation Week is compulsory

Technion International also provides a comprehensive Orientation Week designed to familiarize students with the campus and surrounding neighborhoods and to provide a general guide to student life in Israel. The Orientation Program covers essentials such as opening an Israeli bank account, getting a cell phone plan, navigating around Haifa, and more.

Preparation Period

Following the orientation week, students will undergo a Preparation Program, which lays the foundation for upcoming studies.

Owing to the wide and diverse backgrounds of our international students, it’s essential that all students will begin the academically rigorous BSc program on an equal footing. To ensure that students are fully prepared for the demanding course load, the Technion mandates that all BSc students successfully complete a 16-week preparation program. During this period, students undertake intensive training in mathematics and physics, learn basic Hebrew, and pick-up helpful study skills. Experience indicates that the preparation program gives students a greater chance of excelling in and completing their engineering studies here. This preparatory period allows students to become familiar with the university’s academic structure and get to know their peers through informative and fun social activities. The program also provides students with individual tutors, extra classes, and counseling as needed. Students must be prepared for a challenging and intensive period of study.

Housing

Students are housed in private rooms in Technion’s new dormitory complex consisting of five-person furnished apartment units, shared with international peers. Living on campus, students will enjoy a vibrant and welcoming student community, which will help them easily integrate into life at Technion.

* Opening of the program is contingent on the number of registered students.

** The program is subject to changes, at the discretion of TI.
