|
Program Educational Objectives are broad statements that describe the career and professional accomplishments that our ME program is preparing graduates to achieve. The Mechanical Engineering Program provides a learning environment that allows graduates to achieve our eduational program objectives of having individuals become:
|
 Engineers who have the knowledge and skills of mathematics, science and engineering and are capable of analyzing and solving problems including design and team-based engineering. |
| Engineers who are technically educated and have an awareness of global and contemporary engineering issues and practices. |
| Engineers who have a desire for life-long learning and who are ethical, effective professional contributors of society. |
Program Outcomes are statements that describe what our ME students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. Outcomes of the program are that ME graduates have:
|
| An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering including multi variable calculus, differential equations, statistics and linear algebra. |
| An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data. |
| An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. |
| An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams. |
| An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems. |
| An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility. |
| An ability to communicate effectively. |
| The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global and social context. |
| A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning. |
| A knowledge of contemporary issues. |
| An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. |
