Mechanical and Materials Engineering/CENGR GREG - Engineering PHD - Doctor of Philosophy

Degree Offered

PHD - Doctor of Philosophy

Program Title

Mechanical Engineering

The PhD in Mechanical Engineering will prepare graduates for industrial and/or academic research as well as for higher-level jobs in mechanical-related industry. The design and manufacturing of power plants, automobiles, aircrafts, robots to improved methods of transportation and production by industrial robots are but a few important inventions that would not have been realized without the creativity associated with the mechanical engineering profession. The mechanical engineering academic program provides a well-balanced curriculum in the following areas of specialization: mechanical systems, mechanics, robotics and mechatronics, thermo/fluid systems, heating-ventilation-and-air-conditioning (HVAC), material characterization, manufacturing and automation systems, materials science and engineering, multidisciplinary design optimization and inverse design, computational analysis and distributed parallel computing, biomechanics, laser and plasma materials processing, nanomaterials, nanotechnology, electronic packaging, optical measurement and diagnostics, waste management, and renewable energy. This program provides an opportunity for students to enhance their technical knowledge and to conduct advanced research that can aid in their professional development and pursuit of research-related employment in the mechanical engineering field.
