The Mechanical Engineering, BS is designed to support the goal of educating leaders for the future - men and women capable of meeting the needs of society. The curriculum is designed to provide its graduates with the technical skills and competencies to analyze and design both mechanical and thermal systems, and to give them an in-depth experience in one of these two areas. With a solid foundation in these discipline-specific areas, graduates of the program will be well-prepared to enter any of the industries identified above. All students will take core courses in both content areas through their junior year. During their senior year, they will have the opportunity to focus their program of study with a design elective and three technical electives. These electives can be arranged to focus on areas such as advanced manufacturing, aerospace, bioengineering, robotics, or sustainable energy. The concentration in women and gender studies promotes advanced scholarship that transcends traditional boundaries. Students combine required coursework in women and gender studies with courses in a discipline of interest such as history, literature, sociology, anthropology, health, education, philosophy, social work, conflict analysis and resolution, or the arts. Highly qualified undergraduates majors may apply to the accelerated master’s degree in interdisciplinary studies with a concentration in women and gender studies. If accepted, and depending on their undergraduate major, students will be able to earn a bachelor’s degree in their major and a master’s degree in interdisciplinary studies with a concentration in women and gender studies after satisfactory completion of 150 credits, sometime within five years.
