Information for Students
Make an Impact with Mechanical Engineering
We offer a bachelor of science degree or a minor in mechanical engineering. George Mason Engineering also has a PhD in information technology with a mechanical engineering concentration.
In our undergraduate mechanical engineering program, you'll learn how to design and analyze mechanical and thermal systems and gain in-depth knowledge in one of these two areas. With this foundation, you’ll be prepared to enter the industry of your choice.
You’ll get hands-on experience throughout the curriculum taught by engineers, scientists, and industry experts, culminating in your senior design project. Those projects, sponsored by companies in the Washington, D.C., area, offer real-world experience for our students.
While you're here, you'll learn how to improve your skills and discover new technologies. You'll also establish a foundation for lifelong learning to master new techniques throughout your career, putting you a step ahead of your peers.
