MS-MENG - M.S. in Mechanical Engineering

Department Requirements for the Master of Science and Master of Engineering degrees in Mechanical Engineering

The  four areas of specialization for the masters degrees are listed below with the core classes for each specialization.  

General Mechanical Engineering Degree

12 core class credits are to be taken as any graduate level MENG courses which are approved by the advisory committee.

Specialization in Explosives Engineering

      Core Classes:  Classes listed under Energetic Systems and Explosive Engineering above.

      (Note: Students who have completed the minor in explosives engineering program cannot re-use the classes (including co-listed classes) used for the minor program toward a master’s degree in explosives engineering.)

Specialization in Fluid and Thermal Sciences

      Core Classes: Classes listed under Fluid and Thermal Sciences above.

Specialization in Mechatronics Systems and Robotics

       Core Classes:  Classes listed under Intelligent Systems and Mechatronics above.

Specialization in Solid Mechanics

       Core Classes: Classes listed under Solid Mechanics above.

Master of Science students must take MENG 5085 each semester offered if the student is in residence.  Distance-education students and part-time on-campus students enrolled in the Master of Science program are required to take two semesters of MENG 5085.  Students enrolled in the Master of Engineering program are not required to take MENG 5085.  Only one credit of MENG 5085 may be used to fulfill degree requirements.  MENG 5085 must be taken for a letter grade if used to fulfill degree requirements.
