The Department of Mechanical Engineering aims to advance scientific knowledge, pioneer groundbreaking technologies, and cultivate inventive engineers capable of addressing modern societal issues: enhancing healthcare, strengthening security, and building eco-friendly energy solutions. The Master of Science Thesis program offers mechanical engineering students eight specialized research domains. Biomedical engineering utilizes physics, chemistry, and biology principles to create cutting-edge medical solutions. CU Boulder leverages its expertise in biomechanics (using classical and quantum mechanics to study living organisms) and product development to solve pressing and emerging healthcare problems, spanning biomaterials, tissue regeneration, medical imaging, and diagnostic therapies.
