Department of Mechanical Engineering

About Department

The “Mechanical Engineering” Department was established in 2011 within the framework of the joint project “Expansion of the Engineering School” between BP Azerbaijan and the former Qafqaz University, and it was reorganized in 2016 with the establishment of BMU.

Currently, the department offers training in 3 (three) bachelor’s degree programs and 2 (two) master’s degree programs with 6 (six) specializations.

The department operates 12 teaching and research laboratories equipped with modern high-technology machinery and devices. The equipment is extensively used in the learning process, allowing students to perform experiments, make structural modifications to setups, and apply results both in coursework and scientific research.
