The mechanical engineering curriculum provides a broad base on which to build an engineering career. Traditional subjects in mechanical engineering are complemented by extensive computer experience in such areas as computer-aided design and numerical problem solving. The program's flexibility allows students to specialize in their area of interest through choosing electives. Part-time employment is available to students in the research laboratories of the department. Such experience enhances course work and is particularly valuable to those who later undertake graduate study.

Undergraduate Program Educational Objectives

Graduates of the Mechanical Engineering program at IUPUI will, within a few years after graduation:

• meet or exceed the expectations of their employers.
• pursue advanced study if desired.
• assume leadership roles in their professions and/or communities.
