The Master of Science in Engineering with a Mechanical Engineering specialization delivers focused knowledge through an intensive curriculum and cutting-edge research across three key domains: Design, Optimization and Manufacturing; Energy, Fluid and Thermal Systems; and Mechanics and Materials. The thesis track enables students to pursue advanced research addressing critical societal challenges, while the non-thesis alternative enhances professional skills through additional coursework and an engineering project.
The Design, Optimization and Manufacturing concentration focuses on product development and production processes. Energy, Fluid and Thermal Systems explores diverse subjects including energy systems and fluid dynamics. Meanwhile, Mechanics and Materials equips students with analytical techniques for evaluating novel materials and their applications in emerging technologies.
Beyond the standard M.S. in Engineering requirements, the Mechanical Engineering specialization mandates graduate-level coursework in specific technical areas. This program requires completion of at least 33 semester hours within the designated curriculum.
