One of the fundamental – and most diverse – engineering disciplines, mechanical and energy engineering equips men and women to make a difference on the smallest micro-scale level, as well as in large, complex systems. Each day, mechanical engineering principles are used in the conception, design, development, and manufacture of almost every product or process known to man.
MEE is home to two academic programs that put the world is at your fingertips. You'll have many job choices, and the opportunity to work in well-established or developing industries.
Make the world run better, idea by implemented idea.
The hallmark engineering discipline, mechanical engineering equips you to design, create, build, maintain, and improve just about anything—from toys and machines, to cars and engines, to medical devices, space equipment and more. Put your ideas in action with a world-renowned Purdue University Mechanical Engineering degree from IUPUI.
Energy is critical
That’s why Energy Engineering at IUPUI addresses pertinent issues of global energy supply and demand by exploring how to use energy more efficiently—and even find new sources of energy. Put Purdue University mechanical and electrical engineering expertise– plus physics, economics, math and chemistry – to great use through IUPUI’s one-of-a-kind program, for the betterment of our environment, society, and the world.
The IUPUI Energy Engineering program has certainly paved the path to success. The combination of diligence, persistence, and teamwork with friends and faculty ascended me to great heights.
