Mechanical Engineering

Welcome to the department of Mechanical Engineering

The department of Mechanical Engineering (ME) is one of the nine departments of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and has been a core part of the university since Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) was founded in 1956.

The mission of ME is to carry out long term, generic, world-class research within the mechanical engineering domain on carefully selected topics that fall within the research profile areas of the university, and that match the technological interests of high-tech, internationally oriented industry in the Netherlands and especially in Brainport Eindhoven. Furthermore we want to realize an education and research program with a balanced combination of fundamental and application aspects, thereby aiming at providing industry with scientifically educated and application-driven engineers who are optimally equipped to address future challenges.

Our focus is on education, research and valorization

Education, research and valorization are closely linked and belong to the core activities of the department.
