Faculty of Mechanical Engineering is the second largest faculty of the Brno
University of Technology with almost 4 600 students and 15 specialized institutes.
Studies in Mechanical Engineering go back to 1899. The Faculty was established as
a school in 1958.
Study is strictly structured in three follow-up levels of education - Bachelor's,
Master's, and doctoral study programmes. All study programmes are accredited in
Czech and in English, and there are joint degree and double degree programmes
organized as international study programmes in cooperation with institutions of
higher education abroad (ENSAM Cluny and TU Chemnitz). Various projects from
practice, involvement in research activities carried out at the institutes, and possible
study or stays abroad are integral parts of the study. Each year, approximately 750
students graduate from the faculty having good career prospects with no difficulty
in finding jobs.
The Faculty has had dozens of contacts with the universities and companies in
Europe, U.S.A. and Asia. It is actively engaged in projects within the 6th framework
programme, as well as other EU projects, more than 120 projects granted by the
Ministry of Industry and Trade, grant agencies, 5 research centres, and others.
