Mechanical Engineering M.S.M.E.
The MSME combines professional engineering coursework with research in a field within mechanical engineering. Focus areas include thermo/fluids, materials/manufacturing, dynamics/control, and mechanical design and analysis. There are two options for completing an MSME degree: Plan A (thesis option) and Plan B (project option). Plan A includes writing and defending a thesis which requires in-depth research equivalent to 10 credits out of 30 total credits. Plan B includes a capstone project equivalent to 3 credits out of 30 total credits and targets practicing engineers.
