ME Courses by Area of Interest
Here is a list of courses offered specifically by Mechanical Engineering that pertain to your research area. All courses are offered on campus, but if a course is also offered online students, it’ll be indicated with a icon.
This is just a guide, and not an exhaustive list, as some courses you take may be in Electrical Engineering, Aeronautics, or other schools; and not all courses are offered all semesters. Residential students should check the course catalog for that semester, and online student should check the online course listing for that semester’s offerings. Research-based students should always discuss with your advisor what courses are best for your degree and career goals.
