Sadjad University was the first institute of higher education among universities and higher education institutes under the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology in the east of the country to start accepting students in the field of Industrial Engineering in 2003. In 2003, the sub-discipline of Systems Planning and Analysis was launched at the university, and then in 2005, the sub-discipline of Industrial Production and in 2007, the sub-discipline of Industrial Technology were added to the disciplines of the university, and this trend continued until 2009. Since 2010, with the change of the educational chart of the Industrial Engineering group by the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology and the merger of the three sub-disciplines under the title of Industrial Engineering, this university started to accept students in this field.

Considering the country's need to develop higher education and Sadjad University’s hardware and software capacity, the university was granted permission in 2012 to accept students in Master of Engineering in Industrial Engineering program. In 2014, the university was also granted permission to accept students in Master of Engineering in Economic and Social Systems Engineering program.

The Department of Industrial Engineering is currently active in one undergraduate and two postgraduate programs. The long-term plan of the department is to develop higher education.

The university's record of performance over the years reflects the group's high level of educational and research quality. At the present time, a significant number of graduates of Sadjad University are studying at Master's and Doctoral programs in industrial engineering and related fields at prestigious universities within Iran or abroad. Many of them have been excellent graduates at the graduate level. In addition, a large number of university graduates are working in various industrial and service units in managerial and supervisory positions.

The Department of Industrial Engineering presently has 10 full-time and adjunct faculty members. Moreover, the department utilizes the potential of other educational groups within and outside the university.

Faculty Members of Industrial Engineering and Mechanical Engineering

Sadjad University was the first higher education center among universities and higher education institutes under the supervision of the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology in the east of the country to accept students in the field of industrial engineering in 2003.

The first specialization, Systems Planning and Analysis, was launched in 2003, followed by Industrial Production in 2005 and Industrial Technology in 2007. This trend continued until 2009. In 2010, Sadjad University began to accept students in the field of Industrial Engineering, following a change in the curriculum of the Industrial Engineering department by the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology. The three majors were merged under the title of Industrial Engineering.

In response to the country's need for higher education and the university's hardware and software capacity, the university was authorized to admit students to Master of Engineering in Industrial Engineering program in 2012 and Master of Engineering in Economic and Social Systems Engineering program in 2014.

Currently, the Department of Industrial Engineering offers a Bachelor of engineering program and two Master of engineering programs. The long-term planning of the department is to develop higher education.

The university's record of performance over the course of its activity indicates a good quality of education and research in this department. Currently, a significant number of Sadjad University graduates in the field of Industrial Engineering and related fields are studying for a Master's and Doctorate degree at prestigious universities in Iran and abroad, and many of them are among the top graduates at the graduate level. In addition, a large number of university graduates are working in various industrial and service units in management and supervisory positions.

Mechanical Engineering

Most students who have been interested in designing, building, and repairing machines and devices in their teenage years choose to study Mechanical Engineering in university. In the Mechanical Engineering field, students become familiar with a variety of machines and devices, learn how they work, what the components are, and how each component can be repaired or redesigned.

In Mechanical Engineering, students learn about the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. They also learn how to use different materials to design the components of a device and transfer work and force between them. Some students will be trained to specialize in the properties of fluids so that they can harness energy from fluids and use the properties of fluids to transfer energy from one point to another or from one device to another. Examples of devices that mechanical engineers trained in university are able to design and build include heating and cooling systems for houses, hospitals, and other different places (designing boiler rooms and indoor air conditioning), power plants, refrigerators, jet engines, and turbines.

Mechanical engineers are at the heart of designing the components of every machine. At least, the existence of one mechanical engineer is necessary in every factory.

When designing any device with engineering application, the first question is what material should the device or unit be made of? For example, if we refer to iron as a material in the construction of a device, we can say that more than 10,000 types of iron derivatives are produced in the world. Some are good for welding, some for corrosion and rust resistance, some have a lower melting point or can withstand bumps, and so on. An engineer with his/her knowledge of materials helps engineers and specialists choose the best material for their needs. Today, engineers use a wide variety of petroleum derivatives, also known as polymers and plastics. In dental restorations, these materials sometimes replace metals. The bodies of many airplanes today are made of non-metallic materials. It is all up to the expertise of Materials engineers to determine the best material for making a part.

In the current world, the growing demand for energy is met through the expansion of energy supply systems and the exploitation of fossil energy resources. The rapid growth of energy consumption and the high share of fossil fuels in providing energy for various energy-consuming sectors has accelerated the process of depletion of fossil energy resources and the emission of large quantities of pollutants into the environment. In addition, the dependence of the country's economy on income from the export of fossil energy resources has caused the country's economic system to be heavily affected by the changes in the global energy market. On the other hand, the wide-ranging relationship between the energy sector and various technical, scientific, economic, and social developments requires the design, development, and operation of energy systems to be optimized. Accordingly, the role of universities in training educated and efficient human resources in various fields of energy is considered very important and fundamental.

Energy Engineering uses the fundamentals of basic sciences and engineering to analyze different levels of energy, such as resources, extraction, transmission, processing, conversion, and distribution. The goal of offering an Energy Engineering program at the undergraduate level is to train efficient engineers to design and use energy systems creatively in various applications in the industrial, transportation, and construction sectors, taking into account environmental and economic considerations.
