Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering An undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering prepares students for employment in the design and production of mechanical systems and devices. The program features a design-integrated curriculum in which students work on various design projects where they apply their knowledge and skills to design challenges in a team environment.

Mechanical Engineering Major Requirements

Students pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering must complete the following required courses in which include an eight-course design sequence and a pre-approved track that can be selected from a list of developed tracks based on the educational aspirations of the student. A minimum grade of “C” is required in any course used as a prerequisite for these courses. No corequisites or prerequisites will be waived in the program.
