Starting as Agricultural Mechanical Engineering, the Department changed its name to Industrial Mechanical Engineering in 2004 so as to meet the changing needs of our society as more industries require expertise of the graduates and also reduced the entrance quota in an effort to improve quality of this education. This field of study involves fluid machinery (a pump, blower, compressor, etc.), construction machines (tractor, etc.), motor (internal combustion engine, etc.), machine tools, bio-machinery (farm work machines, farm products and food processing machines), energy-related machines (air conditioning, cooling/heating, and refrigeration systems), and other applications (design, construction, installation, and inspection of various plants).
