Program Overview

The MS degree program in Mechanical Engineering is designed for students who desire advanced training in fundamental and applied areas of mechanical engineering for their career development in research institutions and industry companies. Students can focus on a variety of specific disciplines, including solid mechanics, advanced materials, aerospace and automotive engineering, fluid-mechanics and thermo-fluids, propulsion, clean and renewable energy, biomechanics, robotics, and dynamic systems and control.

Mission

The mission of the graduate program is to prepare students to become knowledgeable and skilled engineers and researchers with an understanding of the ethical and other professional aspects of mechanical engineering.

Goals

The goal of the MS program in Mechanical Engineering is to prepare students for successful careers in the industry, academia, or government, or for further study in doctoral or other engineering-related programs. The educational objective of the program is to graduate engineers with advanced skills and knowledge in mechanical engineering and to train, motivate and inspire our graduates to become leaders in their fields.

Student Learning Outcomes

  • Students will demonstrate competence in the theoretical and practical knowledge of mechanical engineering.
  • Students will demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate the results of their scientific research in writing and in oral presentations.
  • Students will demonstrate the ability to think critically in learning and/or research.

Curriculum

A student needs to complete 30 graduate credits for both thesis option and non-thesis option, including a compulsory math class (MAE 601 – Engineering Analysis Methods), a 3-credit MS project (non-thesis option) or a 6-credit MS thesis (Thesis option).
