Mechanical Engineering (B.S.)

This major offers a traditional curriculum in mechanics, vibrations, thermodynamics, fluid flow, heat transfer, materials, control theory, and mechanical design. Mechanical engineers are involved in material processing, manufacturing, assembling, and maintenance of life-line facilities such as power plants. Mechanical design includes conceptual design, drafting with 3D CAD programs, stress, dynamics, heat transfer or fluid dynamics analyses, and the optimization of the total system for superior performance and customer satisfaction. The mechanical engineering curriculum emphasizes CAD courses, computer courses, laboratory courses, and design courses in addition to providing a strong background in basic science. Graduates find employment in the mechanical and aerospace industries as well as electro-mechanical or biomedical industries.
