From robotics and energy to Baja cars, HVAC studies and much more, you'll find that hands-on experiences and high-quality education go together for our students. Mechanical engineering focuses on motion and the forces and energy associated with motion. It encompasses the design and analysis of machines and processes to meet the expanding needs of a changing, technological, energy-based society. Mechanical engineers work in many areas such as the automotive and aerospace industries, governmental agencies and laboratories, manufacturing facilities, power-production, consulting firms and universities.
