Academic Advising & Administration

The mechanical engineering graduate program leadership is here to help you succeed. We provide academic and administrative support, enabling you to navigate graduate curriculum and graduate school opportunities. 

The mechanical engineering graduate program is led by the graduate committee, which consists of around ten current mechanical engineering faculty, graduate program staff, and graduate student representatives. New faculty serve on the graduate committee each year and represent a range of different research and educational areas in our department.
