Abstract

The science of mechanics, as a branch of physics, is widespread in our world. In recent years vast researches have been done in different parts of this science, but still there remain a lot of jobs to be done. The application of mechanical science as well as the teaching and research in this subject are the duty of "mechanical engineering" The mechanical engineering, as an essential part of general engineering, has different branches. It is the core of some other engineering sciences as: aerospace, ship building and industry engineering. At the same time it is relevant to some other engineering sciences as: structural, metal-forming medical engineering and so on. From this point of view the review of teaching progress in this branch of engineering in Iran and other countries is a subject of interest. In this paper the diversity of education in mechanical engineering in Iran and some other countries are briefly reviewed. Obviously all the subjects cannot be studied in this paper, and possible future papers could complete the subject.
