PSU Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science
The Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering provides advanced coursework and research that blends basic Mechanical Engineering with fundamental engineering principles and practice. Closely tied to industry needs and applications, the program supports research in turbulence, mechanical design, additive manufacturing, computational fluid dynamics, microgravity fluid management, microfluidics, motion synthesis for manufacturing, and material handling processes. The program features research thrusts spanning a wide range of cutting-edge and specialty areas.
The Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering program takes this effort one step further, delving deep into research with the purpose of discovering, changing, or enhancing critical aspects of engineering. Closely tied with industry research and development needs, the program focuses on pushing the boundaries of what mechanical engineering could become in the future.
Applicants to the master's program need a solid undergraduate engineering background, while applicants to the Ph.D. program need a strong graduate engineering background. Both programs require applicants to display an ability to work independently, and a desire to work on problems with no obvious solution.
