Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering (ME) is concerned with energy and its transformations and the design of objects and structures that move. Mechanical engineers are responsible for conceiving, designing, modeling, manufacturing, testing, and marketing devices such as engines and energy systems, machines, and robotics among countless other devices. Typical careers involve product design, development, manufacturing, sales, management, teaching, and research. Mechanical Engineering at 成人大片offers an ABET accredited BS degree, as well as an MS degree. Our alumni find success in top tier companies and graduate schools across the country.
Academic Programs, Objectives, and Outcomes
Prospective students (incoming freshmen, transfers, and graduate students) are encouraged to explore the academic programs and policies for the various ME programs. ME is part of the School of Engineering at UNF. There are academic policies that apply across all engineering majors and disciplines. Be sure to meet with an SOE Advisor often to ensure you are on the right path to graduation.
Academic Programs
Mechanical Engineering Program Educational Objectives
成人大片Engineering graduates will:
- Excel in dynamic and evolving careers by leveraging strong technical expertise, hands-on experience, critical thinking, adaptability, and teamwork.
- Demonstrate initiative and leadership by becoming culturally aware mentors, early adopters of emerging technologies, and self-sufficient professionals who contribute to their fields and communities for the benefit of humanity.
- Drive innovation and continuous growth through interdisciplinary collaboration, lifelong learning, research, and professional development.
Mechanical Engineering Student Outcomes
At the time of graduation, Mechanical Engineering students will have achieved the following Student Outcomes:
- An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
- An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
- An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
- An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
- An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
- An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
- An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
- An ability to apply principles of engineering, basic science, and mathematics (including multivariate calculus and differential equations).
- An ability to model, analyze, design, and realize physical systems, components or processes.
- An ability to prepare students to work professionally in either thermal or mechanical systems while requiring topics in each area.
Schedules and Advising
Engineering courses are progressively complex and rely on a carefully designed sequence that must be taken in the proper order. Since many courses have multiple prerequisites, it is helpful to use the term-by-term sample schedule in Osprey Maps to gain an understanding of what your path may look like. However, Osprey Maps is an aid and should not be used in lieu of academic advising. Contact your SOE (School of Engineering) Advisor today to schedule an appointment.
