Bachelor of Science [B.S] Mechanical Engineering
When students study mechanical engineering at Vanderbilt, they will start with a strong foundation in basic math and physics and will move on to upper-division courses in all major areas of mechanical engineering. You won’t be stuck in a textbook, either; you’ll be developing hands-on skills in the labs and as part of teams in laboratory studies and design projects, and you’ll be using the most modern computational tools. In fact, our unique curriculum will have you working on design projects from your freshman year until you graduate.
Plus students will be able to work side by side with some of the top minds in the business—your professors are not only experts in the mechanical engineering field, but they are terrific mentors and will help you find the best application of your talents and interests.
Like all other Vanderbilt engineering students, you’ll be getting a very good liberal arts education that will enrich your technical and scientific training and help you to become a better problem solver, team member, and manager. You’ll also be prepared to advance into graduate studies in engineering, management, law, medicine, and finance.
