Virtually anything one builds that moves or converts energy has a mechanical component, making mechanical engineering among the most versatile of all disciplines. Our program emphasizes the development of analytical, computational and hands-on skills in design, dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, materials, control systems and robotics. Elective courses in energy conversion and power generation, manufacturing and production processes, aerodynamics and flight mechanics, vehicle engineering, biomedical engineering, and computational methods are available. A concentration in Integrated Manufacturing is offered.

The impact of open strategy is inescapable in our general public. It influences the nature of the air we inhale and the water we drink. It influences flourishing and the degree of destitution, just as our entrance to training and medicinal consideration. It shapes the effect and pace of mechanical change.
