Institute of mechanical engineering is the predecessor of the Department of mechanical engineering, its history can be traced back to the founding of our university early (1952) mechanical department, has been 60 years of school history. After 60 years of developments, through joint efforts of generations before and after, the college of mechanical engineering had reached seven undergraduate professional, three master's degree authorization points and more than 2700 students. After 2012 and 2015 restructuring, the new College of mechanical engineering have four undergraduate specialties of "mechanical design, manufacturing and automation", "mechanical and electronic engineering" and "metal material engineering", "industrial engineering"; a "Mechanical Engineering" first-degree Master points; "mechanical design, manufacturing and automation", "mechanical design and theory", "mechanical and electronic engineering" and "material" four secondary master's degree awarded; a mechanical engineering master of engineering field. College of mechanical engineering has "mechanical design, manufacturing and automation", "mechanical and electronic engineering", "metal material engineering" and "industrial engineering" four major Teaching and Research Section, "metal engineering", "machine drawing" and "machine design foundation" three basis Teaching and Research Section, a government office and a student work office. The existing staff consists of 45 people, 37 full-time teachers, including 5 professors, 16 associate professors. 23 teachers with a doctorate degree, and all of them graduated from different key universities, the college structure is reasonable.
With the training of talents as the basic task and the implementation of the center position of the teaching, the research on the education and teaching is carried out in depth. Won 5 Liaoning Provincial Teaching Achievement Awards; 2 Liaoning Provincial Excellent Courses; 1 teaching team of Liaoning Province; 1 Liaoning Province famous teacher; 1 Liaoning Province outstanding youth teacher; a lot national and provincial excellent textbooks.
Institute undertakes many kinds of scientific research projects and has reached higher level in the scientific research field of polymer materials processing technology and equipment, theoretical research and engineering application of mechanotronics, metal materials and corrosion and protection technology research. Published more than 300 papers in the past five years, more than 100 papers was selected by SCI and EI, etc. monographs11, authorized invention patents and utility model patents 20.
Institute students focus on the quality of the training, and actively promote the 6S program. In recent years, our college students had acquired many kinds of prize in "Challenge Cup" competition of extracurricular academic science and technology, "Challenge Cup" competition of business plan, National College of mechanical design competition, obtained national 1 second prize , 2 third prize and provincial awards 98. Every year a number of outstanding students wore admitted to enter key universities for master degree study. College graduate employment rate has been among the forefront of the school, an employment rate of more than 97%.
