The undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering at the School of Mechanical, Electronic and Control Engineering is an internationalization program designed for both international and domestic students to receive excellent engineering education, gain international experiences and prepare them to compete successfully in a global society. A great advantage for international students is that all the courses in this program will be taught in English and you will have the opportunity to learn basic Chinese.
Mechanical engineering is a broad field encompassing a number of disciplines. It applies the principle of science and creativity to the analysis, design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance of mechanical system. The students will learn engineering theory and practice in the design and manufacturing of mechanical equipments. Pursuing a career in mechanical engineering offers many benefits, including excellent employment prospects, job security, opportunity for advancement, challenging tasks and work environments.
Virtually all industries employ mechanical engineers in various capacities, because being a mechanical engineer means you get to design, research, test and produce things in nearly every area of technology, including industrial equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems, clean and alternative energy systems, automobiles, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical devices and more. Accordingly, mechanical engineering graduates have a bright job outlook. More than 97% of our graduates have at least one job offer prior to graduation. The positions distribute in major companies at all levels.
To earn a Bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering, you should complete 160 credits in 4 year study period. General requirements in Social and Humanities courses, Chinese culture and Survival Mandarin courses for international students will be organized by international office of Beijing Jiaotong University, and omitted in the following modules.
The curriculum program is structured in 4 course modules.
This module allows the students to lay a strong foundation in science and engineering basics.
The courses in this module are arranged in first two years.

Some featured elective courses are also required for student in this program, such as cross-cultural communication, project management in global context.
Every summer, for 4 weeks in June and/or July, you will have the chance to study 2 or 3 specialized course given in English, involving professional subjects in Mechanical Engineering area, basic survival Mandarin course and some Chinese culture course.
In 2012, we offer 2 professional course for international students:
Time: 18, June, 2012 to 13 July, 2012
| Course title | Instructor | Credit |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanisms and Machine Theory | Prof. Qiaode Jeff Ge, State University of New York at Stony Brook | 4 |
| Automatic Control | Prof. Guoming zhu, Michigan State University | 3 |
| Mandarin or Chinese culture lectures | Offered by international office | 1-2 |
The International and Chinese flavored experience you will acquire during your tie here will help you enhance your profile for prospective employers.
