The Mechanical Engineering Department provides a Master of Science program in Mechanical Engineering. Key specialization areas include: Thermal-Fluid Mechanics and Energy Systems, Dynamics, Vibrations, and Machine Design, Robotics, Controls, and Mechatronics, Biomechanics, and Manufacturing. While courses are structured around these five focus areas, students can tailor their curriculum to align with personal interests and professional aspirations. The program offers frequent exposure to real-world engineering challenges and advancements within Northeastern Ohio's industrial and research hub. Faculty and students engage in collaborative research initiatives with organizations such as the U.S. Department of Energy, NASA Glenn Research Center, and industry leaders like Parker-Hannifin, General Electric, and Philips Medical Systems. The curriculum fosters innovation, deepens understanding of mechanical system fundamentals, and equips students with modern analytical, control, and design techniques for mechanical, mechatronic, robotic, and thermal-fluid systems.
Applicants can join the program directly after earning a bachelor's degree or following industry experience. Both full-time and part-time study options are available. Additionally, the Department features an accelerated 5-year combined BME/MSE degree pathway.

Qualification Requirements
Admission to the graduate program in mechanical engineering is open to qualified students with a baccalaureate degree in mechanical engineering or other fields of engineering. A minimum baccalaureate grade-point average of 3.00 (or 2.75 for students from EAC/ABET-accredited programs) normally is required. Students without a degree in mechanical engineering are required to take prescribed undergraduate courses in mechanical engineering to ensure adequate preparation for the required graduate-level courses. These courses are available both day and evening from the Mechanical Engineering Department and other departments in the University. Undergraduate courses taken to remediate deficiencies do not count toward graduate degree requirements.
The GRE General section is required if one or more of the following conditions is true:
The undergraduate degree was awarded by a college or university outside of the United States or Canada, or by a Canadian institution not accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers.
An unaccredited college or university awarded the undergraduate degree.
The student's undergraduate cumulative grade-point average is below 2.75.
The year of the baccalaureate degree precedes the date of application to the College of Graduate Studies by more than six years, however, in this case, the examination requirement may be waived, with program approval, if the applicant's undergraduate grade-point average is 3.00 or above.
IELTS - 6 (no part below 5.0)
TOEFL iBT - 78 (no part below 17)
TOEFL pBT - 550
