Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Mechanical Engineering] From Old Dominion University

The mechanical engineering program is among the most basic of all engineering programs, with a curriculum that embraces the major areas of power, design, and fluid or solid mechanics. Seniors may enroll in one of three concentration areas:

• Power/energy conversion
• Mechanical systems/design
• Aerospace engineering

The program is designed to prepare its graduates for professional practice in many facets of engineering, such as research, development, design, planning, testing, management, and consulting. The graduate is prepared to undertake challenging and creative engineering work in almost any industry, government agency, research organization, or consulting firm. The program also provides an excellent preparation for graduate school and the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam.

An undergraduate student handbook providing rules and a detailed semester-by-semester plan for the program is available on the department's website. Courses are routinely scheduled in the evening to accommodate students with current employment.
