The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering was founded in 1951 and is one of the successors of the Mechanical Faculty of the former State Polytechnic.

The faculty has a total of six departments: "Automation of Discrete Production", "Engineering Logistics and Lifting-Transport and Construction Equipment", "Engineering Design", "Precision Engineering and Instrumentation", "Fundamentals and Technical Means for Design", and "Machine Elements and Non-metallic Structures".

Bachelors can choose their studies in one of the four specialties:

Students have access to a rich laboratory and research material base - instruments for measuring geometric and physico-mechanical quantities; optical, fine-mechanical and micromechanical equipment. Young specialists learn on special automatic lines, computer laboratories for automated design, a training complex-integrated production system, a laboratory of engineering logistics and equipment, and laboratories for design projects.

 Undergraduate students can choose to study one of the four majors: Students have access to extensive laboratory and research facilities—including instruments for measuring geometric and physical-mechanical quantities, as well as optical, precision mechanical, and micromechanical equipment. Young professionals receive training on specialized automated production lines, in computer labs for computer-aided design, in a comprehensive integrated training production system, in a laboratory for engineering logistics and technology, and in design laboratories.
