• The Cal Poly Mechanical Engineering (ME) Department graduate program is based on the same philosophy as our undergraduate program: hands-on education, classes and laboratories taught by faculty, and an emphasis on best teaching practices.
  • This program prepares students to be able to design and develop advanced systems, to conduct research, and to perform detailed analyses for future work in industry or to continue study towards a doctoral degree.
  • Students can pursue an area of emphasis based on their interest such as thermal fluids, controls and robotics, mechanics and stress analysis, or composite materials.
