Department for applied mechanics

The main purpose of the department of applied mechanics is to enable students to successfully acquire basic knowledge of fundamental subjects of the basic part of the study, which are necessary for successful mastering of the units within the later focused study at the faculty. The department studies the areas in which the knowledge required for the analysis and calculation of important parameters of technical systems (forces, laws of motion, dimensioning, balance of mechanical energy), which is a prerequisite for mastering issues related to the study of numerous technical areas in mechanical engineering (constructions, engines and vehicles, production processes, etc.).

Basic information about the department:

The main task of the Department of applied mechanics is education and research in the field of mechanics of solids. The teaching process is organized according to the requirements of the ECTS system, and the curricula are constantly analyzed, updated and improved. Numerous textbooks, books and scripts have been published by the teaching staff, and some new ones are in the final preparation for printing, so that the publishing activity is constant at the department.

The department also includes the Laboratory for applied mechanics and mechanical constructions. The laboratory contain a number of instruments and equipment, while the modernization and procurement of new equipment is permanent process.

Members of the department have the task of continuous improvement, which is reflected in the acquisition of academic titles and professional development. Members of the department also participate in numerous scientific conferences. The department has active cooperation with other departments of the University of East Sarajevo, and other scientific research institutions in the country and abroad. There is also good cooperation with business entities.
