Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering: The Roots of Technology

Mechanical engineering was born when man invented the wheel. Our need for things mechanical is still growing along with career opportunities for degreed mechanical engineers. Modern-day wind mill -- mechanical engineers are involved in the design of new energy-producing systems.

Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest engineering disciplines and is an integral part of nearly all technologies. Mechanical engineering is at the core of the very beginnings of engineering and it remains a vital part of 21st Century technologies.

Mechanical engineers are involved with the very large as well as the very small -- from huge space vehicles to nano-machines. Mechanical engineering design involves all states of matter. Mechanical engineers use sophisticated computer analysis to design complex systems that are not only safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly, but also cost-effective.

One of the newest degree programs offered at the Daytona Beach campus, the Mechanical Engineering program will introduce students to the latest methods, materials, and practices found in mechanical engineering.

The Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering program is wide-ranging and will provide students with a high degree of engineering fundamentals to prepare them for a variety of engineering positions in numerous industries including aviation, aerospace, automotive, energy production, industrial design and manufacturing, medical, robotics, and governmental agencies. The program is also an excellent foundation for students who wish to go on to graduate school.
