Overview

Mechanical engineering, one of the most general branches of engineering, requires broad knowledge in many fields: mechanics, thermal science, design, machinery, instrumentation, and more. The breadth and flexibility of a mechanical engineer’s education provides a wide choice of careers in such fields as energy and sustainability, aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, robotics, and biomechanical engineering.

Mission Statement

To provide our students with innovative learning experiences and service opportunities and to graduate well educated professionals who are prepared to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world.
