Welcome to the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering!  

Our Department is comprised of three programs which offer eight degrees, and is the largest academic department on the Missouri University of Science and Technology campus.

- Your undergraduate design experience will begin in your freshman year with a "design and build" challenge and continue throughout your studies in the form of hands-on design projects and laboratories that correspond to the theory you are learning.  You will have the opportunity to broaden or focus your degree on coursework in areas like automation, vibrations, controls, robotics, rapid prototyping, fluid dynamics, energy conversion, and laser manufacturing.  The program offers comprehensive graduate education in a number of areas including but not limited to: dynamics and controls; manufacturing; materials and structures; mechanical design; and thermal and fluid systems.

- This undergraduate program permits students to gain theoretical knowledge by involving them in numerous opportunities to participate in hands-on design and research projects and in competitions.  Students gain technical knowledge in aerospace engineering disciplines in classes that study aerodynamics, materials, structures, stability and control, propulsion, and aircraft and spacecraft design.  The program offers comprehensive graduate education in a number of areas. Aerodynamics, gas dynamics, hypersonics, aerospace system design, aerospace propulsion, aerospace structures, and flight dynamics and control are a few of the areas of emphasis.

Manufacturing Engineering - The manufacturing interdisciplinary program will provide two degree options - a master of science degree and master of engineering degree. Both degree programs are offered in the traditional format as well as through the Internet so the students can access the lectures anywhere at any time.  This program is the only master-degree program of its kind in Missouri and is among the first in the nation.
