Accelerated Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering
This accelerated program lets undergraduate students begin taking graduate-level courses during their final years of undergrad, saving time and money while deepening expertise and advancing careers sooner.
Accelerated Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering
Undergraduate students that would like to qualify for the Accelerated Master's Degree Program must meet the following requirements:
- Mechanical Engineering major
- 3.0 minimum GPA
- 90 completed credit hours as an undergraduate
Number of credit hours a student can earn towards the graduate degree while completing their undergraduate studies:
- 15 credit hours for students with a 3.0 GPA or higher
Courses undergraduate students in the Accelerated Master's Degree Program can take to earn credit towards the graduate degree:
- ENGR 523 Engineering Thermal Management
- ENGR 546 Micro/Nanoscale Fabrication
- ENGR 554 Computational Heat Transfer
- ENGR 558 Vibration Analysis
- ENGR 559 Elements of Robotics
- ENGR 585 Mechanics of Composites Materials I
- ENGR 590 Finite Element Analysis
- ENGR 591 Engineering Analysis I
- ENGR 593 Approximate Methods of ENGR Analysis I
- ME 521 Projects
- ME 522 Projects
- ME 523 Special Topics in Mechanical Engineering
- ME 524 Special Topics in Mechanical Engineering
- ME 525 Advanced Dynamics
- ME 527 Materials Processing
- ME 529 Aerodynamics
- ME 530 Physical Metallurgy
- ME 531 Mechanical Behavior of Engineering Materials
- ME 533 Electronic Properties of Materials
- ME 534 Properties and Selection of Materials
- ME 535 Experimental Stress Analysis
- ME 537 Mechatronics Systems Engineering
- ME 538 Experimental Characterization of Polymer Composites
- ME 541 Theory of Use of CAD and Solid Modeling
- ME 543 Linear Systems and Controls
Remember: Students who fail to reserve 500-level courses for graduate credit at the time they take the course will not receive graduate credit for the course (graduate level work must be completed to earn graduate credit).
- Reserving graduate credit with 500-level courses is required to ensure the Graduate School and instructor know the student must complete graduate credit requirements for the course.
- Students cannot later claim graduate credit for 500-level courses if they did not take the appropriate steps to notify the Graduate School prior to taking the course.
