Master of Science [M.S] [Mechanical Engineering] From Florida Atlantic University

The OME department is heavily involved in research and scholarly activities funded by industry, state and federal agencies. Research areas of special interest include, but are not limited to: autonomous marine vehicles, underwater acoustic imaging and communication, physical oceanography, hydrodynamics and acoustics of marine vehicles, robotics and controls, alternative energy (solar, wind and ocean), materials (nano, composite, and corrosion), helicopter dynamics and structures. 

A high percentage of our graduate students are supported by research funds as well as teaching assistantships. Our graduate students perform their research activities either on our Boca Raton campus or in our state-of-the-art Institute for Ocean and Systems Engineering called SeaTech located in Dania Beach.Our faculty members at OME are world class in both education and research. Many have published successful textbooks in their respective areas of expertise and have received scientific and service to the field awards. Our faculty is also heavily involved in publishing their research findings in archival journals as well as presenting their works at national and international conferences.
