Mechanical Engineering Minor

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

A minor in mechanical engineering provides a complementary engineering skill set to non-mechanical engineering majors as well as other students interested in engineering. This minor provides a basic foundation in mechanical engineering principles related to manufacturing, solid mechanics, and fluid and thermal sciences.

This minor allows courses to be shared with a major from the same department.
