Mechanical Engineering Online

You want a master’s degree that delivers opportunity but still fits into your current personal/work priorities. You’re looking for career advancement and you want practical skills that turn theory into application for solving real engineering problems.

Our non-thesis master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering is now available fully online. It allows you to pursue your professional goals with a schedule that fits your life, but it offers the same technical rigor and value as the on-campus master’s degree. In fact, the online degree requirements, instructors, and classes are the same ones you’ll find in our on-campus Mechanical Engineering master’s program. Online students have the opportunity to expand their skills and knowledge in one of three core ME areas: (a) biomechanics, (b) solid mechanics, materials, and manufacturing, or (c) thermal fluid and energy systems.

Our non-thesis master’s degree in ME online will prepare you to tackle a wide array of multidisciplinary engineering challenges under the leadership of top-notch faculty who work directly with other universities, industry partners, and national labs.
