Bachelor of Science in Engineering - Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering encompasses the design, analysis, production and operation of machines and systems. It requires the ability to use principles from mathematics, science, and engineering, perform research, create mathematical and physical models, simulate and test working conditions, and synthesize different elements in order to obtain the optimum design of a specific product or process. The increasing sophistication of products and systems requires academically qualified mechanical engineers who can apply state-of-the-art tools and methods of engineering. Examples include computer-aided engineeringdesignmanufacturing, finite-element analysis, computational fluid mechanics, robotics, heat transfer, dynamics, and advanced machine and tool design. Develop expertise in the design, analysis, and production of increasingly sophisticated machines and systems. In addition to mastering technical skills in math, science, and engineering, you’ll learn to think critically about the complex social, political, environmental, and economic issues that influence engineering solutions. Mechanical engineering courses include computer-aided design, robotics, heat transfer, advanced mechanics of materials, advanced thermodynamics, and machine and tool design. Graduates will have the opportunity to work in a diverse spectrum of professional fields. These vary from research to design, development to manufacturing, and technical sales to production. Many mechanical engineers work in manufacturing-related areas such as analysis and design of varied products and in non-technical sectors of the economy. This program also prepares students to continue their education at the graduate level. Graduating seniors are encouraged to take the Fundamentals of Engineering examination, the first of two examinations that lead to becoming a licensed professional engineer.

Basic requirements for admission as an international student to a bachelor's degree program include the following: Completion of formal secondary education in a pre-university curriculum. Completion must include the awarding of a diploma or the issuance of a leaving certificate or matriculation certificate generally recognized as the educational qualification necessary for admission to higher studies. English language ability at a level sufficient to undertake a full course of study. Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Testing (ACT) scores (if applicable). International students are not required to provide an ACT or SAT score, but they may use the ACT or SAT to satisfy English language proficiency requirements. Copy of Passport or National ID card. All international applicants and international students who are visa holders in the US must also provide a copy of their current visa or immigration status. All international applicants and international students who are visa holders in the US must provide a copy of their current visa or immigration status.
