Abstract
In this paper we discuss the influence of Mechanisms and Machines Science in the development of Mechanical Engineering in Georgia. The historical perspective of the beginning of MMS in Georgia and its affiliation as an IFToMM member country is outlined and we explore the scientific and educational progress of MMS research fields in Engineering Science. The development of novelties in MMS is described and the influence of IFToMM on scientific research in Georgia is acknowledged. We also indicate the critical problems of MMS development that Georgia will be addressing.
