Accelerated Mechanical Engineering Degree

Expedite your graduate-level education with a combined degree in mechanical engineering. You'll gain all the technical expertise that will prepare you for a career in government or industry in mechanical engineering, or a related field.

The combined B.S./M.S. preparation will include guided, independent research and advanced coursework in mechanical engineering and related areas. The curriculum is designed to help you develop a mastery of scientific research by formulating, assessing and documenting a scientific hypothesis.

With the B.S./M.Eng. program, you'll be prepared to effectively apply modern engineering principles to the evolving needs of industry and society. You'll gain the technical skills to excel in fields such as manufacturing, materials science, mechanical design, thermal sciences and aerospace applications.

Best of all, you'll learn through hands-on education, leadership opportunities and research experiences. Typical working projects include:

• Wind tunnel experiments
• Space hardware design
• Nanotechnology development
• Pressure vessel research
• Coal combustion
• Agricultural innovations
• Precision machining

How the Accelerated Mechanical Engineering Degree Works

If you are an incoming freshman or transfer student, apply to UND and your program. As a current student, connect with your advisor to make sure you stay on track for the combined or accelerated program. During your junior year, you can officially apply to the School of Graduate Studies. Complete the required courses, and you'll earn both your undergraduate and graduate degree at the same time.
