Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's nationally recognized graduate program in Mechanical Engineering (ME), is known for both the ingenuity of our researchers and the quality of our students. Mechanical Engineering is home to over 150 graduate students from more than 9 countries on 3 continents who pursue M.S., M. Eng., or Ph. D. degrees. Working professionals are welcomed, and many pursue M. Eng. degrees taught in a blended format between online and face-to-face instruction.<br><br>ME program's PhD research focuses on fundamental and modern topics within four broad areas in Mechanics and Materials, Thermal and Fluids Engineering, Design and Manufacturing, and Dynamics and Control, complemented by three cross-cutting research areas in Energy Science and Engineering, Materials, Materials Processing and Controls, and Human Health and Safety. Potential PhD applicants are encouraged to browse the faculty research lab websites for more information on specific research topics and faculty advisors<br><br>The M.Eng. degree is perceived to be more practically oriented in comparison to the M.S. degree. Students in the M.Eng. program will complete a research project chosen by the student and a professor who serves as the student's academic adviser. Course work typically focuses on subjects related to the research project topic.<br><br>In addition to the Institute requirements and those listed above, the M.Eng. requires a total of 30 credits, 6 of which come from the master's research project. All courses used to earn the master's degree must be taken at the 4000- or 6000-level. No 4000-level (or 6000-level) courses used to complete undergraduate degree requirements may be counted towards the completion of a graduate degree.
