ABOUT THE COURSE

The mechanical engineer is the professional who works in the planning and supervision of the industrial transformation of materials, mainly metals, into parts and assemblies. It also uses pressure and temperature variation and hydraulic, pneumatic and thermal energies.

It is, therefore, a professional with a vast potential of activities, which is seen in the opportunities of traineeships for the students and of work for the graduates.

Since the first semester, students have participated in practical activities, such as the design and construction of a pedal quadricycle, which ends with a fierce competition at the end of the semester. However, it is a very serious matter, because it requires dedication and studies of the participants, who must dominate the physical concepts.

Throughout the Course, there are seminars and debates to develop team integration, critical sense and responsibility in making decisions, valuing ethical principles.

The tests are carried out in twelve laboratories in various areas of mechanics, using modern machining equipment, welding, mechanical automation, pneumatic and hydraulic automation, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and material testing, among others. Several softwares allow simulating real situations in a digital environment.

OTHER INFORMATION

Teachers guide Conclusion Works of great interest not only in industries, but also in the areas of health and social inclusion, with interdisciplinary studies under the guidance of professors of other courses.

This was the case, for example, of a group that delivered a race simulator for training to para-athlete Heitor Mariano, world champion of the Miami Half Marathon and São Silvestre race of 2014.

The same team set out to construct another more complete, multifunctional equipment for treatment and training for people with different physical disabilities.

EVALUATION CRITERIA

The evaluations of the students are based on the skills and abilities necessary for the professional exercise, being defined in the Pedagogical Project of each Course of Graduation or Technology, following the Curricular Guidelines and the General Regiment of UNISANTA.

The evaluation of the school performance is done by discipline, according to the curricular activities developed, covering the aspects of frequency and grade.

It is considered approved in each discipline the student who has attended at least 75% of the academic work expected and obtained arithmetic mean equal to or greater than 5 (five) between the grade resulting from the partial evaluations and the final exam.

The final evaluation is granted only to the student who obtains, in each discipline, arithmetic mean equal to or greater than 3 (three), resulting from the partial evaluations.

The student who, in the course under study, has met the minimum frequency requirement and obtained an average of 7 (seven) or higher as a result of the partial assessments is waived from the final exam.
