机械和航空航天工程系提供航空航天系统工程和机械工程专业的理学硕士学位和哲学博士学位。航空航天系统工程专业的MS和机械工程专业的MSE均需要31个学期，并且有两种选择。论文选修课程需要24小时的研究生课程，1小时的研究生研讨会和6小时的论文。在此选项下的学生必须完成书面论文和口头答辩。非论文选项需要30个小时的研究生课程和1个小时的研究生研讨会。我们的MS计划的毕业生应该能够使用适当的技术来解决复杂的工程问题，可以使用正式的数学来阐明工程分析，并与他人清楚地交流工程解决方案。
The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department offers Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Aerospace Systems Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. The MS in Aerospace Systems Engineering and the MSE in Mechanical Engineering each require 31 semester hours and are available as two options. The thesis option requires 24 hours of graduate coursework, 1 hour of graduate seminar, and 6 hours of thesis. Students under this option must complete a written thesis and an oral defense. The non-thesis option requires 30 hours of graduate coursework and 1 hour of graduate seminar. Graduates of our MS programs should be able to solve complex engineering problems using appropriate techniques, to use formal mathematics to clarify engineering analyses, and to clearly communicate engineering solutions to others.
