2018-2019 Undergraduate & Graduate Catalog
工程学士学位，机械工程专业
机械工程包含了这种分析, development, design, 以及对各种机械系统的测试，包括涉及力学的机器, motion, and energy: alternative energy systems, biomedical devices, robotic systems, vehicles, aircraft, engines, HVAC systems, and industrial equipment.
在整个四年的课程中，“设计和建造”的教育理念贯穿于广泛的实验室和项目活动中，为专业实践做准备. 学生在课程的各个阶段都参与设计. 在每个级别上，他们必须实现自己的设计，并进行测试、验证和重新设计. 这种方法允许学生体验许多现实世界的约束，如项目经济学, project planning and scheduling, environmental considerations, 设计的可制造性/可生产性, laboratory and product safety, and product reliability.
大三和大四的机械工程课程建立在大一和大二课程的基础上，提供更深入的机械设计, 和动力系统，以及热流体科学和工程的额外背景. 学生完成这些领域的必修课程，并从相同领域的选修课程中进行选择, and/or manufacturing, 以及包括生物医学工程在内的新兴领域, and alternative energy systems.
选择机械工程专业的学生可以为广泛的工程职业做好准备，并在毕业前完成工程基础考试的教育要求.
