They must have a clear idea of the following fields of knowledge, initially acquired in previous courses:
Mathematical analysis
General classical mechanics
Fluid mechanics
Fluid engineering is one of the branches of engineering with the greatest number of applications in the world today, from the transportation of oil through large pipelines to the design of systems as humble as good tanks to store any fluid.
For this reason, its study is of basic importance in the training of any engineer, and more so in the case of an industrial engineer that is so wide-ranging. The relationship of the subject with the profession depends, of course, on the final destination of the student. If the company is related in any way to transport of any type of fluids will be greater than if that relationship does not exist. Regarding its relationship with other subjects, it is highly related to all Mathematics subjects, since it is one of its basic tools and all those that are in one way or another related to the transport of fluids, such as thermotechnics.
