TPW - Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering
Transfer Planning Worksheet

The Mechanical Engineering (ME) major emphasizes hands‐on experience, collaborative problem solving, and societal implications in the design, production, and implementation of mechanical and thermal fluid systems. Our research includes biomedical engineering, robotic surgery, commercialization of medical devices, advanced materials characterization, marine systems, power/energy, and engineering policy. We actively engage with local industries and these industry professionals are valued members of the affiliate faculty.

MAJOR ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Applicants to Mechanical Engineering must complete the following prerequisites:
