BSE in Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers use skills in mathematics and science to develop, design, and manufacture tools, engines, machines, and many other mechanical devices that improve our standard of living. Mechanical engineering is one of the most diverse disciplines within the engineering profession; mechanical engineers collaborate with doctors to design better medical equipment, research and build renewable energy technologies, and create robots that replicate human movement. The Mechanical Engineering program at the University of Connecticut educates students in basic engineering, science, and mathematical principles in preparation for rewarding careers in engineering. The Bachelor of Science degree includes opportunities for students to create their own area of focus or to take electives to explore an interest in another professional school or program.
