Student Learning Outcomes

Mechanical Engineering

Upon completion of the Master’s degree (with thesis) in Mechanical Engineering at IUPUI, students will be able to:

1. Assess the quality and relevance of published results from the literature.
2. Apply appropriate laboratory, computational, and analysis techniques in the service of answering a research question or contributing to product development relevant to mechanical engineering.
3. Communicate (in speech, writing, and appropriate supporting visuals) the results and implications of mechanical engineering research.

Upon completion of the Master’s degree (non-thesis) in Mechanical Engineering at IUPUI, students will be able to:

1. Apply the tools of mathematics, science, and engineering to solve problems in the broad area of mechanical engineering.
2. Demonstrate knowledge of mechanical engineering principles that advance the broad spectrum of application areas that is mechanical engineering.
3. Communicate (in speech, writing, and appropriate supporting visuals) information related to the theory and practice of mechanical engineering in research or industrial settings.
