Until December 2005, Mechanical Engineering is one of the Departments within Faculty of Industrial Technology (FTI). The reorganization of ITB, shifted the role and function of resource and programs management from Department to Faculty in January 2006. Hence, Mechanical Engineering became one of the study programs within FTI. Starting January 2008, to enhance agility and ability to swiftly respond to challenges facing the country, the Faculty of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering was formed. The new Faculty offers undergraduate and graduate programs in Mechanical, Aerospace and Materials Engineering.
