Senior capstone projects
Our undergraduate program culminates in a capstone design course where students work in teams to develop innovative engineering projects designed for industry or community partners.
If it moves, a mechanical engineer probably had something to do with it.
From automobiles, airplanes and space shuttles to robots, artificial limbs and biochips – all moving and transforming our future.
Aerospace engineering program
The ME Department has initiated an Aerospace Engineering (AE) Program with intended Minor in 2021 and Major in 2022, and graduate MS and PhD programs approved by 2021. The department hired Dr. Petros Voulgaris as Program Director, and Aditya Nair as faculty, in 2020. A 5700 ft2 Aerospace Engineering Experimental Station has been secured. Three additional faculty are expected to join the program in the next couple of years.
