为了满足对更健壮，高效和经济的设计不断增长的需求，工程系统的新范例本质上是复杂的，并且包含大量异构子系统。现在要求机械工程师具有复杂系统的设计思维能力，以理解和与大量子系统设计专家进行互动。为了使具有这些新的设计思维技能和技术能力的工程师毕业，机械工程本科课程以一系列设计课程为基础。该课程包括基石课程，基石课程，并在四个主题重点领域（热流体工程，固体力学，系统动力学与控制，设计与制造）提供系统能力，这对学生，职业成功至关重要。
From flight simulations and launching satellites, to manufacturing biomedical innovations and 3D printing drones, mechanical engineering students have many opportunities for exciting hands-on experience. Engage with peers and travel to competitions by joining a student organization such as the Society for Women in Engineering or the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. To meet the increasing demand of more robust, efficient, and economic design, new paradigms of engineered systems are inherently complex and contain a large number of heterogeneous subsystems. Mechanical Engineers are now required to have design thinking skills for complex system to understand and interact with a large number of subsystem design experts. To graduate engineers with these new design thinking skills and technical abilities, the mechanical engineering undergraduate curriculum is anchored on series of design courses. The curriculum includes cornerstone, capstone courses and provide systemic competence in four thematic focus areas (Thermofluid Engineering, Solid Mechanics, System Dynamics and Control, Design and Manufacturing) essential to students, career success.
