International scale product lifecycle management (including development, raw materials, manufacturing and waste) is facing the reform of this age. To pursue the high-efficient production, Department of Mechanical and Precision System is designated to train mechanical technicians accurately grasping condition and future, with perception ability, creativity and challenge spirit. Department of Mechanical and Precision System is featured by “Automobile Technology Course” (ATC) opened within this subject. Students master technologies related to automobile engineering and preparation and universal engineering course knowledge related to the latest technology. We also pave the road to enter a graduate school for students intended to research this major.

Students will integrate two science and engineering subjects—mathematics and physics and fundamental computer knowledge, such as programming. Students may master high-grade, precision and advanced knowledge through learning professional courses database theory, operation system, digital system loop, machine measurement, etc. Students may master practical technologies through information system exercise and human electronic testing, etc.

“Overview of aerospace engineering” and “overview of fundamental engineering” include the basic concepts of aero-mechanics, boosting engineering, stability operation, construction strength, and material science. Through learning these fundamental concepts, students will be able to better understand rapidly-developed universal aerospace and universe engineering with a broad range. Besides, students will also learn the specific shapes of spacecrafts, rockets, artificial satellites and other aerospace machines, their properties and purposes to understand aerospace engineering system thoroughly.

Students shall start from fundamental biological and chemical knowledge to understand biological phenomena. On this basis, students learn molecular genetics, microbiology, food science, plant physiology, animal physiology, etc. From Year 2, students will do fundamental experiment of bioscience.
