In this study, Undergraduate Education Program and Mechanical Engineering Education in the USA are emphasized. Some universities of U.S.A. are investigated, compared with the Undergraduate Curriculum of universities in Turkey and then the differences are evaluated. While comparing, courses are collected in four main categories which are Basic Sciences, Engineering Sciences, Mechanical Engineering and Social Sciences. Total credits of courses in each category arc compared for the mentioned countries. At the end of the examination, the largest difference is determined in the total credits of Social Sciences.

In this study, the dynamic behaviour of an electrohydraulic position control system with opposite load is theoretically and experimentally investigated. Experimental tests are carried on the hydraulic system test rig which is available in the Mechanical Engineering Department, Engineering and Architecture Faculty ofUludag University. The variable opposite load used on the system is provided by a spring element. A MA1LAB/Simulink/Simhydraulic model is build for simulation studies. The dynamic behaviour results with and without opposite load are compared with experimental and simulation results.Agood agreement is shown between these results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
