Faculty of Engineering

The Faculty of Engineering provides value added services to increase the students’ learning experience by its innovated traditional teaching practices.

We emphases on:

  1. Mind Training rather than the Information transfer,
  2. Problem Solving / Project-based learning,
  3. Teaching fundamental concepts accompany with details of current technology,
  4. Real-life-like assessment rather than examination-based assessment.

The major objective of every programme in WCIMT Australia is to train the mind of students so as to develop critical thinking ability, competence in finding information as well as learning how to use that information effectively once it is found.

The Faculty’s programmes are designed to create adaptable and broad-based graduates who may require in some instances further training or the self-acquisition of further knowledge before they can undertake some particular specialist engineering tasks, but who are well prepared for any further learning in their chosen engineering area.

Our students are educated to reason by using fundamental concepts rather than to try to apply memorized facts and equations inadvertently. Abstract mathematical treatment of topics is avoided and mathematics is regarded as an engineering tool for creative thought and analysis.

Academic staff foster an atmosphere which is suitable for student-centered learning and which encourages and facilitates self-study and deep learning. Care is taken not to put students in a position where they have to absorb knowledge at the expense of neglecting the development of abilities such as designing, high-level problem solving, practical competence, and acquiring an enquiring and innovative attitude.

Examinations and coursework assessment are designed to evaluate the students’ understanding of concepts as well as their knowledge and skills. The methods used for assessment resemble, as much as possible, the real-life challenges that the students are likely to face in their careers.

Special emphasis is placed on improving the English proficiency and communication skills of our students via a large variety of ways.

Staffs are encouraged to develop their individual styles of teaching and to use novel teaching /learning techniques in broad conformity with the teaching philosophy outlined above.

Teaching performance of staff are observed by the use of student feedback questionnaires and peer evaluation of teaching.

Department of Mechanical Engineering

The mission of the department is to be a pioneer in education and research. We seek to produce future leaders for industry, academia, government, and society — leaders whose vision is founded upon fundamental knowledge, analytical skills, creativity, perspective, and ethics. We seek to advance technology and science by combining basic knowledge with the innovative application of engineering and scientific principles and we also seek to enrich our educational and research programs, and ultimately society, through service.

Our educational mission is to prepare students for careers involving technological innovation and leadership. Our undergraduate educational program provides a broad base on which successful careers in engineering and a number of other fields can be founded, whereas the graduate program aims to prepare specialists, professionals, and scholars in mechanical engineering. The research mission of the Department — which is to create knowledge, technologies and ideas through fundamental research and its application — is closely intertwined with its educational mission.

The teaching and research programmes in the Department are organized according to both disciplinary and inter-disciplinary themes. We cover all of the core disciplinary areas of mechanical engineering including Dynamics, Controls, Solid Mechanics, Materials, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Transport and Design. We have strong interdisciplinary programmes in Manufacturing, Energy.

This website serves for our internal use so that we can broadcast information about classes, current events and news to our students, faculty and staff and also serves as a window into the department for the outside world.
