Admission as a graduate student normally requires a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, materials science and engineering, or engineering mechanics. A candidate with a bachelor's degree in another field and with proficiency in other engineering disciplines, mathematics, and/or physics may be eligible for admission. However, students must remove any deficiencies in essential undergraduate courses that are prerequisites for the chosen degree program, in addition to meeting the other requirements of the graduate program.
