Mechanical Engineering is an engineering discipline that involves the application of principles of physics for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.
It requires a solid understanding of core concepts including mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and energy. Mechanical engineers use the core principles as well as other knowledge in the field to design and analyze motor vehicles, aircraft, heating and cooling systems, watercraft, manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, robotics, medical devices and more.
The Dept. offers various programs at the B.Eng., M.Eng., and PhD. Levels, i.e. Energy Conversion, Solid, Heat and Fluid Design.
A minimum of 141 hours of credit is required for the B.Eng. in Mechanical Engineering.
