 Program Objectives |
|
The goal of the Master's Program of Mechanical and System Engineering is to train students to become innovative developers of machinery, equipment and systems vital to the world we live in today. The curriculum and research work will be focused on the leading edge of scientific technology and applying the specialized knowledge that lies behind these technologies. Twenty-first century energy and global environmental problems will receive considerable attention in this program.

| Curriculum Overview |
 |
 The members of program faculty will provide students
with advanced instruction that is built on the undergraduate program, and advise
students on how to approach research work in thermal engineering, fluid
dynamics, mechanical system dynamics, material mechanics, material processing,
measurement and control systems, and applied mathematics. Each year, about 60
students are admitted into the program. These 60 students are then divided into
about fifteen groups. Each group of roughly four students is assigned to a
specific laboratory for research work related to their master's
thesis.
Students can choose from a wide range of research topics including:
(1) efficient use of energy;
(2) heat transfer and drag reduction;
(3) the protection of the environment;
(4) high-speed public transportation;
(5) numerical simulation techniques;
(6) vibration and noise control;
(7) material mechanics;
(8) material fractures and strength properties;
(9) mechanical analysis of advanced materials;
(10) machining and processing of mechanical parts or equipment;
(11) material processing computer simulations;
(12) metal work processing;
(13) optimal production and distribution planning;
(14) precision machining of gears and gear evaluation performance
(15) estimation and control of stochastic systems;
(16) random data modeling and signal processing;
(17) pattern recognition and analysis;
(18) optical diagnostics for the 3D measurement of fluidics, and electronic
prosthetics. |
