Mechanical engineers drive innovation across diverse industries including aerospace, computing, automotive, construction, robotics, and energy systems.
This program cultivates a comprehensive understanding of career possibilities within the discipline while offering varied research opportunities to establish your unique contributions. You'll develop models, create designs, and conduct experiments to validate thermal and mechanical systems, components, or processes - all while accounting for practical limitations and societal implications.
Collaborative opportunities exist to partner with faculty on corporate-funded projects. Past student researchers have supported work for U.S. government agencies, NASA, and leading corporations such as Hewlett-Packard, General Atomics, and Battelle.
