Overview

The programme in Mechanical Engineering at University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) requirements are intended to provide students with both depth and breadth of knowledge in Mechanical Engineering while being flexible enough to allow students the opportunity to explore non-traditional and emerging areas in which Mechanical Engineering plays a central role. Course work plans must be prepared in consultation with the student’s academic advisor and should be submitted to the Graduate Programme Director (GPD) for approval during the first semester of study. Changes in the plan are permitted, but must be approved prior to implementation.

Key Facts

The M.S. programme has a thesis and a non-thesis option. All full-time students are encouraged to take the thesis option. This is the preferred programme of study for those interested in careers in advanced research or plan to continue for a doctoral degree. The non-thesis option may be more appropriate for part-time students or those pursuing careers in industry.
