Engineer the Future with a Mechanical Engineering Degree
Hands-On Learning. Real-World Impact. Your Engineering Journey Starts Here.
Mechanical engineers don’t just build things — they innovate, design, and create solutions that shape the world. From cutting-edge medical devices and next-generation battery systems to high-performance engines and energy-efficient machines, mechanical engineering is at the core of every industry that moves the world forward.
At ÃÄÄïÖ±²¥, we go beyond the textbook with a design-forward curriculum that puts your skills to work from day one:
- Common First-Year Courses: No need to decide on a specific engineering discipline right away—all engineering majors take the same classes in their first year, giving you time to explore your interests before selecting a major in your second year.
- Extensive Lab Courses: Nearly every engineering course includes a hands-on lab component, allowing you to apply theory to real-world challenges using state-of-the-art equipment.
- Real-World Projects: Every year, you’ll tackle hands-on design challenges, working in teams with industry partners and research mentors.
- Industry-Connected Capstone: Your senior-year project isn’t just for a grade—it’s a real-world engineering challenge in collaboration with top industry professionals.
- State-of-the-Art Labs for Hands-On Learning
The John R. Post School of Engineering provides access to cutting-edge labs designed to give students real-world experience in key areas of mechanical engineering:- Mechatronics Lab: Explore robotics, automation, and intelligent control systems.
- Fluids Lab: Study fluid dynamics and hydrodynamics through hands-on experiments.
- Heat Transfer Lab: Work with thermodynamics, energy systems, and heat exchangers.
- Material Testing Lab: Analyze mechanical properties of materials and structural integrity.
