FEM is one of the most highly regarded schools for mechanical engineering and mechatronics in both Brazil and Latin America, as well being ranked the highest on the CAPES evaluation.

The DE is distinguished for several years, in the setting of national institutions, the interdisciplinarity of its activities, a characteristic now recognized as vital in engineering.

The DMC currently has a faculty of eleven full-time teachers, all with the title of Doctor obtained in prestigious institutions in the country and abroad.

The FEM works in undergraduate, postgraduate, research, extension education and service agreements and cooperation with foreign industries and other institutions in the country and abroad.

The cooperation agreements contemplate the transfer of technology in applied areas such as materials technology, industrial automation, manufacturing management, failure analysis, energy studies, space industry, lamination steels, mechanical tests, machinery and equipment, bio-mechanical prostheses, maintenance procedures, manufacturing processes, thermal and fluids, vibrations and noise.

The Motriz is a nonprofit civil association that aims to optimize productivity and contribute in resolutions to problems in Mechanical Engineering.

Given its proactivity, provides university-company approach to both its members and the student body, with the organization of events such as the Week of Mechanical Engineering at UNICAMP.

Members, who are exclusively students from first to fourth year of graduation, have the opportunity to better prepare for the job market, dealing with problems and solutions that contribute to its growth.

Formed only by undergraduates, the Mecatron carries out projects in the field of control and automation affordable, helping the development of micro and small enterprises in the region.
