This course is perfect for those who not only want to understand how machines work but also how to improve production processes, reduce waste, and make systems faster, smarter, and more cost effective. It's where mechanical design meets industrial efficiency making it one of the most in-demand engineering disciplines in industries like automotive, manufacturing, aerospace, and even energy.But before you dive into designing the next big invention or streamlining production in a major company, you need to know where to start—which universities offer this course and what it takes to get in. In this blog, you'll learn a list of universities in Nigeria offering Mechanical / Production Engineering, the JAMB subject combination you’ll need to apply, the O’Level (WAEC/NECO) requirements for admission
##What is Mechanical /Production Engineering Course?
Mechanical Engineering (ME) is a broad engineering field focused on the design, analysis, and manufacturing of mechanical systems, while Production Engineering is a specialized branch of ME that focuses specifically on optimizing the manufacturing processes and systems to efficiently produce mechanical designs into final products
