Bachelor of Science - Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineering is ubiquitous. Mechanical engineers invent, design, test, and manufacture products and systems used in virtually every segment of society. They work in areas as diverse as aerospace, biomedical implants, energy systems, automobiles, robotics, defense, and manufacturing.

Mechanical engineers take products from concept to prototype to production and beyond. In preparing for lifelong learning, it is necessary to develop the whole person. In addition to professional competency, a balanced program encompassing strong written and oral communication skills and an appreciation for the arts, humanities and social sciences is required.

Professional competence is built on a foundation of mathematics, physical and natural sciences, engineering sciences, design, analysis, and laboratory experience. The role of the engineer as problem-solver and designer is the common thread throughout the curriculum. Most mechanical engineering graduates take positions in industry. Some however, continue their formal education in a graduate program or work in research.
