Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree produces the thinkers and designers that are concerned with controlling the principles of motion, energy, and force through mechanical solutions. The program emphasizes solid mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid sciences, and energy systems. A solid core of other engineering, math, and computer science coursework ensures well-rounded graduates.

Students will have opportunities for extensive faculty-student interaction, undergraduate research, and hands-on experience through student projects like the Mini-Baja race car, unmanned aerial vehicle, human-powered vehicle, and urban concept car. In the program's final semester, students will have an opportunity to present the results of their senior capstone project in a professional conference setting on campus at the school's annual Undergraduate Research and Design Symposium.
