Our program offers a comprehensive foundation in core engineering sciences and their practical uses, balancing focus across machine design, structural analysis, thermodynamics and energy, systems and control, and materials science. The Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering at UTA provides a well-rounded education that stresses essential engineering principles and real-world applications. Roughly equal attention is devoted to machine design, structural analysis, thermodynamics and energy, systems and control, and materials science. Laboratory sessions complement classroom instruction, and undergraduates finish their studies with a culminating capstone design project.
Students must have completed official secondary school transcripts, diplomas, certificates and/or national test examination scores as appropriate for the educational systems in their country. In order to be considered for freshman admission students must have completed secondary school studies equivalent to that of United States high school graduation.
Official SAT I or ACT scores are required for entering freshmen with less than 24 semester hours of university level course work (equivalent to one year of full time study).
