机械工程理学硕士

机械工程学系提供的研究生课程可导致获得机械工程理学硕士学位和博士学位。每个研究生在与研究生委员会协商后，都会准备一份单独的学习课程。目前的研究领域包括：生物力学和生物医学工程，仿生生物，复合材料和结构，计算力学，控制和动力系统，设计优化，流体力学，传热，海洋可再生能源，纳米材料和装置海上工程，降阶建模，机器人技术，智能材料，太阳能，固体力学，热科学，不确定性量化和工程教育。生物力学和生物医学工程，仿生生物，复合材料和结构，计算力学，控制和动态系统，设计优化，流体力学，传热，海洋可再生能源，纳米材料和装置海
The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers graduate programs leading to Master of Science and PhD degrees in Mechanical Engineering. Each graduate student, in consultation with his or her graduate committee, prepares an individual program of study. Current areas of research include: Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, Biomimetics, Composite Materials and Structures, Computational Mechanics, Controls and Dynamic Systems, Design Optimization, Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Marine Renewable Energy, Nanomaterials and Devices Offshore Engineering, Reduced-Order Modeling, Robotics, Smart Materials, Solar Thermal Energy, Solid Mechanics, Thermal Sciences, Uncertainty Quantification and Engineering Education.

The Master of Science degree with thesis requires a minimum of six credit hours of thesis research in addition to 24 credit hours of acceptable coursework. The M.S. degree program will include courses from both the engineering mechanics and thermofluid science fields. For students with a strong interest in other disciplines, excellent opportunities exist for an interdisciplinary program of study in which up to 40% of the MS degree credit is earned in another department in the university. The non-thesis Master's degree requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of coursework and a comprehensive examination.
