In this paper, the present state of the experiments in the mechanical engineering education is analyzed and the improving methods of the experimental education are presented. Data at twelve universities are collected. In spite of the general understanding of the importance of the experiments, the portion of the experiments is less than 10%. It shows the need to increase the experiments. Experiments for basic mechanics are fairly well performed, but experiments for applied subjects would be strengthened. Several improving methods such as systematic support for experiments, use of the exclusive assistants for experiments, and so on are discussed.
