Mechanical Engineering
Since its launch as the Department of Mechanical Engineering in 1974, Kookmin University’s School of Mechanical Engineering has continuously evolved in step with changes in society and industry. In 2010, the School was renamed the School of Mechanical Systems Engineering and began operating specialized majors. This was followed by the establishment of the Convergence Mechanical Engineering Major (2015) and the Mechanical and Energy Engineering Major (2017), through which the School has offered major-specific, specialized curricula. Since 2022, however, the School has unified its program under a single Mechanical Engineering Major, removing boundaries between majors and supporting students in developing interdisciplinary thinking and flexible career pathways. The School pursues interdisciplinary education and research that integrates the core areas of mechanical engineering—such as design and manufacturing, robotics/bio-systems, and energy and environmentally friendly technologies—with emerging industries of the future, including AI, data-driven design, and smart manufacturing. To cultivate talented individuals equipped with problem-solving skills and creativity in the rapidly changing industrial landscape and the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, all members of the School work together to reflect and act. In addition, based on ABEEK (Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea) accreditation, the School operates a balanced curriculum that integrates theory, practice, and design. Graduates advance into a wide range of fields, including leading domestic and global industries, research institutes, public institutions, and graduate programs.
