机械工程师在设计和制造日常生活中必不可少的所有产品和系统中起着重要作用：家用电器，自行车，娱乐设备，汽车，卫星，轮椅，飞机，机器人，工业设备和环境控制系统。机械工程（ME）领域涉及所有这些系统的机械，热和流体流动方面，包括复杂系统的计算机和反馈控制。作为犹他大学的机械工程系学生，您将学习成功所需的专业，技术，批判性思维和沟通技巧，并对这一激动人心的领域做出有意义的贡献。<br> <br> ME课程包括除了关于ME概念的课程外，还提供数学，物理和化学课程：学生学习热流体，固体力学，机电一体化和其他相关主题，
Mechanical engineers play a significant role in designing and manufacturing all of the products and systems essential to everyday modern life: home appliances, bikes, recreational equipment, automobiles, satellites, wheelchairs, airplanes, robots, industrial equipment, and environmental control systems. The field of mechanical engineering (ME) is concerned with the mechanical, thermal, and fluid-flow aspects of all of these systems, including computer and feedback control of complex systems. As a mechanical engineering student at the University of Utah, you will learn the professional, technical, critical thinking, and communication skills you need to be successful and make meaningful contributions to this exciting field.<br><br>The ME curriculum consists of courses in math, physics, and chemistry, in addition to coursework in ME concepts: students learn thermal-fluids, solid mechanics, mechatronics, and other pertinent topics, including an eight-month capstone design course. The ME degree additionally offers students the option to complete one of 12 emphases, allowing them to tailor their program to best fit their strengths and interests.
