The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering provides advanced degree programs in Mechanical Engineering for both master's and PhD candidates. The department also administers a Master of Science in Industrial Engineering and a Doctor of Philosophy in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research program; detailed information can be found in the relevant catalog section. Students can explore diverse mechanical engineering coursework and engage with cutting-edge research organized into four primary interdisciplinary domains: Biomedical and Biotechnology, Microsystems and Nanotechnology, Transportation and Infrastructure, and Energy and Environment. Research specializations within these areas encompass micronanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS), micro/nanoscale manipulation, nanoparticle studies, nanofluidics, microtransducers and micromechanisms, electrospinning techniques, acoustics research, dynamic systems and vibration analysis, medical imaging technologies, biomechanical engineering, computational mechanics, product development, mechatronics, control systems, multi-body dynamics, vehicle system analysis, internal combustion engines, combustion systems, plasma physics, heat transfer phenomena, turbulent flow studies, multi-phase fluid dynamics, molecular dynamics research, and air quality management solutions.
