This paper describes some useful learning methods for young students to study the fundamentals of mechanical engineering. The methods are as follows:
(1) practice of solving many daily practical engineering problems
(2) frequent questions and answers between lecturer and students
(3) brain storming through team activities
(4) design and hand making of some machines
These methods are realized in a company institute and the usefulness of them is recognized by many company engineers. These methods may also be effective to learn the fundamentals of mechanical engineering for university students.
