Mechanical Engineering Core Courses

Click here to see the plan of Mechanical Engineering graduate course offerings for the next three years (2008-2011) by core area.  Summer courses may change subject to availability of funds.

In addition to the core courses listed above, the ME department offers advanced courses on other special topics (see graduate catalog for a complete listing of all mechanical engineering courses).

 Mathematics Courses

The following Mechanical Engineering courses can be used to satifsy the mathematics requirement for MS students:

Analysis of Engineering Systems I (ME 5301)     
Numerical Analysis of Engineering Systems (ME 5302)

Students may also take any graduate level approved mathematics course, excluding Math 5360/5361.  Please note that students cannot use both ME 5302 and MATH 5334 on their degree plans due to content overlap.

Filing an Official Degree Program

All MS and PhD students must submit the degree program form to the Graduate School before the second semester of enrollment (this will be enforced by placing a hold on students’ records).  The form (obtained from the links below) must be completed using MS Word and sent as an email attachment to the Graduate Assistant in the Advising Office.  Please read the following instructions before completing the form: Guidelines for Degree Plans.

Once this form is approved by the student's Faculty Advisor, the Graduate Advisor and the Graduate School, the courses listed on this form become the Official Degree Program for the student, and deviations can only be made when properly justified. Students are therefore urged to work closely with their Faculty Advisor when submitting this form.  Please note that the Department is not required to accept any courses taken after the initial semester of attendance unless they have been previously approved as part of the Official Degree Program.
