DENSO and DELTA Partner with KU Mechanical Engineering to Shape the Next Generation of Engineers
On June 19, 2025, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Kasetsart University, held the second annual KU Mech X program. This year, the initiative expanded its scope to include students from all academic years (Years 1–4), focusing on the development of essential soft skills through Active Learning in collaboration with leading global industry partners.
At the main conference hall on the 4th floor of the Mechanical Engineering Building, Siam DENSO Manufacturing Co., Ltd. conducted an interactive workshop for first-year students under the theme “Knowing Yourself.” A team of five expert trainers guided students through internationally recognized tools such as Personality Mapping, Strength Mapping, and Self-Reflection. These activities were designed to help students understand their strengths, weaknesses, and work styles—building a foundation for effective collaboration in their future careers.
Simultaneously, on the 19th floor of the Mechanical Engineering Building, Delta Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited facilitated a hands-on workshop for second-year students under the theme “Systematic Problem Solving.” Through practical exercises such as Bottleneck Simulation, Root Cause Tree Analysis, and Team Pitching, students gained valuable experience in problem identification, analysis, planning, and technical communication within a team-oriented industrial context.
KU Mech X is more than just a learning activity; it represents a strategic initiative to prepare students to become well-rounded, future-ready engineers. By emphasizing analytical thinking, teamwork, and leadership guided by professionals from top-tier companies—the program reflects the department’s strong commitment to aligning academic development with real-world needs.
This initiative embodies the vision of “learning for real-world readiness,” empowering KU Mechanical Engineering students to grow as both professionals and individuals, capable of meeting the dynamic challenges of 21st-century engineering.
