Mechanical Engineering curriculum at University of Jos UNIJOS follow recommendation by the Nigeria Society of Engineering (NSE), Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN) and National University Commission (NUC) and that means highly academic skills and moral standard are being imparted into students of the Department.
Teaching Mechanical Engineering at UNIJOS is done in such a way that will expose the students to adequate practical trainings on top of their classroom theoretical study and thereby equipped them with skill to solve engineering and technology problems, the types required for the labour market.
Years to study Mechanical Engineering is divided into two at UNIJOS and that are the Foundation Years: which refers to the 100 level and the 200 level and the Professional Years which are 300, 400 and 500 levels. They are the years when teaching and learning are focus on the core courses which prepare students to become professional Mechanical Engineers.
