School of Engineering & TechnologyMechanical Engineering
Why Choose Our Program?
Mechanical 工程师s face many challenges and innovations across many fields. 以满足 this broad demand, mechanical 工程师s design a component, a machine, a system, or 一个过程. This ranges from large systems like automobiles to the smallest components like sensors. Anything that is fabricated or has moving parts needs the expertise of a mechanical 工程师.
JU’s Mechanical Engineering major prepares students to apply the principles and techniques of science and 工程师ing to the design and manufacturing of a product. It combines creativity, knowledge, and analytical tools to complete the difficult task of shaping an idea into reality. Through design projects integrated into the curriculum, JU Mechanical 工程师s learn how to design and analyze products using the principles of motion, energy, and force, ensuring that their designs are sustainable and environmentally friendly while functioning safely, efficiently, and reliably, all at a competitive 成本.
Watch the Video: Mechanical Engineer Zachary Leinart tests the lift force on a 3D printed model of a CRJ-700 aircraft using a load cell in JU's wind tunnel. 这是 part of a collaboration between Engineering and Aviation students.
Mechanical EngineeringCurriculum
Our students immerse themselves into this design-based focus while taking core 工程师ing courses to reinforce fundamental 工程师ing concepts necessary to develop feasible, sustainable, and eco-friendly solutions to real problems.
The entire curriculum encourages each student to fulfill their potential by engaging them in experiences where they “learn and apply” and “design and build.” This contrasts with most traditional 工程师ing programs in which students spend their semesters taking math and science prerequisites before they are challenged with real 工程师ing problems. All JU 工程师ing students will graduate with a 6 Sigma Yellow Belt Certificate.
Possibilities are Endless
Mechanical 工程师s make a difference by creating products and technologies that meet human needs and improve their lives. By designing almost every product or service of the modern world, mechanical 工程师s have helped humankind.
JU’s fundamental yet comprehensive Mechanical Engineering degree is the gateway to developing solutions for climate change, world hunger, health care, energy, transportation. JU Engineering students have participated in internships with Johnson and Johnson Vision, the Jacksonville Transportation Authority, JEA, CSX, the US Department of Energy and the US Army Corps of Engineers, National Science Foundation (NSF), and Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU).
