Mechanical Engineering - Florida Atlantic University

Mechanical Engineering from Florida Atlantic University is a Campus Bachelor Mechanical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Mechanical Engineering is the branch of engineering that is most directly and broadly concerned with mechanical systems and their use to control and transform energy for the benefit of humankind. Mechanical engineering embraces the science and art of the generation, transmission, and utilization of thermal and mechanical energy and the design, production, and application of devices and systems. The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers programs of study leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (B.S.M.E.), Master of Science (M.S.) with a major in Mechanical Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) with major in Mechanical Engineering . To encourage undergraduates to pursue a graduate education, the department also offers a combined B.S.M.E. to M.S. degree program that permits a student to complete both a bachelor's and a master's degree within five years. Mission Statement The mission of the Department of Mechanical Engineering is to provide undergraduate students with the fundamental background necessary for a career in mechanical engineering and for the continuation of their education through postgraduate studies. For graduate students, the department strives to provide the in-depth background necessary for advanced work in mechanical engineering and to continue their education at the doctoral level. All students are prepared to conduct basic and applied research and to provide service to the engineering profession and the community. Educational Outcomes for Student Performance Upon graduation, undergraduates will be able to: 1. Formulate and analyze problems and synthesize and develop appropriate solutions based on fundamental principles. 2. Design basic mechanical components or processes to meet desired specifications using appropriate engineering tools and techniques. 3. Prepare and perform experiments, evaluate and interpret data, and report and present the results. 4. Demonstrate an understanding of professional, societal, and ethical responsibility. 5. Function effectively in teams and communicate their ideas to their peers. 6. Recognize the need to engage in lifelong professional development and learning.
