The faculty of Mechanical Engineering was established in 1957 at the same time as the establishment of Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic) and began its official activity by accepting undergraduate students in 1958. This faculty, with about 50 faculty members, has a great impact on the scientific production of the country and has an important role in the country's industry. Currently, the scientific activities of the faculty continue in three bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees; Undergraduate students are majoring in general mechanical engineering and mechanical-manufacturing engineering. The master's course is offered in five majors: Applied Design, Energy Conversion, Manufacturing, Mechatronics, and Welding Engineering, and the doctoral courses in mechanical engineering has been started since 1990.
With its well-equipped laboratories and workshops, the faculty enables students to apply their learned concepts and theories practically and prepare themselves to enter the country's industry. These laboratories and workshops include the following:
