Mechanical engineers design and build the systems that we use in our everyday lives. They conceive and develop the devices and systems concerned with energy transformation and conservation. Heating and ventilation, hydraulics and fluid power, aerospace technology, automation systems, and solar power are just a few examples of systems designed by mechanical engineers.
Undergraduate students entering the Mechanical engineering program will graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical engineering, with the option to place more emphasis in sub-specialties such as petroleum or aerospace engineering.
UAF Mechanical engineering students gain practical experience designing and building projects in their own machine shop, and have access to unique research facilities.
Mechanical engineers are in high demand in Alaska and nationwide. UAF engineering students and graduates are recruited by a variety of companies to fill summer internships and high paying full time positions.
