Undergraduate Mechanical Engineering program at GIKI is a well-structured 4-year BS degree accredited by PEC. As a cross-disciplinary program, it gives its students a sound foundation of engineering principles and promotes communication and practical skills that are the need of the present and future knowledge driven industry. Classroom theory is reinforced through extensive laboratory work, problem-based learning, and complex engineering problem. FME is focused on design and manufacturing, thermo-fluids as well as system dynamics and control, thus, enabling students to pursue their final year design projects as per their future career aspirations. 

The program is recognized as equivalent to a degree from Washington Accord (WA) signatory countries as our degree program is a accredited by Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) under Level-II category

OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION (OBE)


Undergraduate Mechanical Engineering Program has adopted student centric OBE system that leads to enhanced learning outcomes for students and relies heavily on continuous quality improvement. Moreover, curriculum is continuously revised keeping in view the country’s industrial needs as well as adopting best international practices. Our students are thus equipped with twelve key graduate attributes or Program Learning Outcomes. These attributes or learning outcomes groom students with sound intellectual, theoretical and practical experiences that qualify them to address a variety of societal needs ethically. Thus, enabling graduating students to step with confidence into industry, research organizations or in the domain of higher education. FME firmly believes the education we provide will enable our graduates to stand out from the crowd and has the potential to rise and shine.
