BRIEF ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

Practical

Mechanical Engineering Technology, as offered in ANLO TECH.INT. is a dynamic program that blends foundational science with practical, hands-on learning. It equips students with the skills to design, fabricate, maintain, and troubleshoot mechanical systems that power industries—from automotive and manufacturing to energy and construction. With a focus on real-world application, the program emphasizes core areas like thermodynamics, machine design, welding and fabrication, and industrial automation. Students gain both classroom instruction and workshop experience, preparing them for direct entry into the workforce or further technical studies.

n Ghana’s drive toward industrialization and skills-based development, Mechanical Engineering Technology plays a vital role. The program not only nurtures technical aptitude but also fosters creativity, problem-solving, and entrepreneurship—qualities essential for national growth. Graduates are empowered to take on roles as technicians, easeartisans, or innovators, helping to build and maintain the infrastructure that drives the nation forward.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMME

PRIMARY AIM

The primary aim of the MET course under the CBT framework is to produce Technician Engineers who possess the practical dexterity and mental agility to design, install, and maintain mechanical systems.

Specifically, the program aims to:

Drive Industrial Growth: Supply the technical manpower for Ghana’s “One District, One Factory” (1D1F) initiative and the automotive assembly plants (e.g., VW, Kantanka, Toyota).
Bridge the Skills Gap: Align the training of students with the actual technical requirements of mining, oil and gas, and manufacturing firms.
Standardize Competence: Ensure that a graduate from any TVET institution in Ghana can perform mechanical tasks to a globally recognized industrial standard.
Foster Entrepreneurship: Equip students with the ability to manage small-to-medium scale engineering workshops and fabrication centers.

Subjects

Trade Subjects for Mechanical Department

It focuses on equipping students with essential hands-on skills in the operation, maintenance, and safe use of various machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, grinders, and drilling equipment. Through practical training and workshop-based instruction, students learn fundamental techniques in shaping, cutting, and finishing metal components to precise specifications.

Maintenance Practice is a vital subject within the Mechanical Engineering Technology program in Ghana’s TVET institutions, designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to ensure the efficient functioning and longevity of mechanical systems.

The subject is designed to immerse students in the practical and theoretical aspects of manufacturing and production. This course introduces learners to various materials—such as metals, plastics, and composites—and explores their properties, applications, and suitability for different engineering tasks. Students are taught essential workshop skills including measuring, cutting, shaping, joining, and finishing using both hand tools and machines.

Technical Drawing is a precise and detailed form of drawing used to visually communicate ideas, designs, and specifications for objects, structures, or systems. It is a fundamental tool in fields such as engineering, architecture, manufacturing, and construction.
