Mechanical Engineering, BSME

At Purdue University Northwest, mechanical engineering is a four-year program of full-time study leading to a degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME). The course of study is preparation for a career in a constantly changing field and provides a basis for lifelong learning. Students may pursue a general program, or may choose a specialization in areas such as Thermal and Fluid Sciences, Solid Mechanics, or Mechatronics (the later leading to a minor). The BSME degree is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. The Mechanical Engineering curriculum provides a broad education in the fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering. Students may pursue a general program or may choose a specialization in areas such as Thermal and Fluid Sciences, solid Mechanics, or Mechatronics.
