About Mechanical Engineering in University of Cincinnati

The Mechanical Engineering graduate program in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering (MME) offers a Master of Science degree. The MS degree requires the completion of a thesis.

Graduate level courses in core Mechanical Engineering areas as well as in emerging areas are offered. Academically, the program is grouped into research foci consisting of: (1) Structural Dynamics and Acoustics; (2) PHM, Intelligent Systems and Reliability Engineering; (3) Advanced Manufacturing; (4) Engineering Simulation and Applied Mechanics; (5) Nano-Technology and Bio-Medical Engineering; (6) Thermal-Fluid and Enhanced Heat Transfer; (7) Advanced Materials Research.

The Department has state-of-the-art research laboratories in Vibrations and Acoustics, Computational Mechanics, Nanotechnology, Manufacturing, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Thermal Processing and Thermal Fluids, Bio-Fluids, Heat Mass Transfer, Fuel-Cells and Microscale Flow and Heat Transfer.  Currently, five major research centers are housed in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, which provide many opportunities for students and faculty to engage in scholarly research and knowledge creation. These are:

1. NSF Industry-University Cooperative Research Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems
2. UC Simulation Center - a UC/P&G Collaboratory
3. Siemens Simulation Technology Center
4. NSF Engineering Research Center for Revolutionizing Metallic Biomaterials
5. Additive Manufacturing Center
6. Laser Shock Peening (LSP) Center

In addition, faculties receive research funding from national agencies (NSF, DOE, NASA, DOD, EPA) as well as numerous industries. Research assistantships and teaching assistantships are available on a competitive basis.
