1 aerospace & mechanical (AME) AME overview programs available courses flowcharts Aerospace Engineering Aerospace Engineers develop, test and produce high-performance systems for missions into space, the atmosphere, the ocean, and on the ground. They are also involved in the development of technologies such as advanced composite sensors, airbreathing propulsion, computational science, and remote-sensor global monitoring. The aerospace industry is the largest exporter of advanced equipment in America. Aerospace Engineers face a diverse and challenging future developing new technologies, designing more efficient vehicles, and assisting in the conversion of defense technologies to the commercial sector. Our Aerospace Engineering department is nationally known for our research, including in the space sciences, control of turbulence, computational fluid mechanics, combustion and heat transfer and nonlinear dynamics. Recent undergraduate research projects have included work on a Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) micro-thruster (the Free Molecule Micro- Resistojet) and the aerodynamics of ground vehicles. Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineers apply scientific methodology to find solutions to mechanical problems and to create products and systems necessary for everyday life. These products range from the most common such as cars and industrial machinery to the very complex, including advanced materials and structures that meet the demands of hypersonic space travel, electrical power plants, and instruments for advanced medical technology. Our Mechanical Engineering program provides the skills necessary to pursue a career in industrial practice, research or teaching. Students are prepared to address future technological needs such as working with engineered materials, robotics for manufacturing, materials handling, space applications, technology for emission control, and environmental safety. The ME curriculum provides students with the analytical, laboratory and design skills needed to become a leader in any industry. Undergraduates also have the opportunity to participate in research with faculty as well as work with their fellow students competing in national engineering contests such as designing and building a formula race car.
