Are you up to the challenge?

Mechanical engineering, a field where concepts of physics are applied to solve real-world problems, is among the broadest of all engineering disciplines in terms of scope. In fact, practically all devices and objects that surround us in our daily lives are at least partly designed based on mechanical engineering principles (e.g., cars, smartphones, drones, prosthetic limbs, etc.) or are fabricated in an industrial setting using machinery and tools that are products of mechanical engineering. Even the generation and conversion of the energy used to manufacture such devices and objects relies heavily on the field of mechanical engineering. A mechanical engineer can be an innovator leading the design, analysis and manufacturing of new products or be responsible for ensuring the continued efficient and safe operation of existing devices. A mechanical engineer also has excellent problem solving skills that may be applied to numerous areas such as robotics and automation, heating and ventilation, biomechanics, transportation, energy production and conversion, aerodynamics, hydraulics and pneumatics, etc. The numerous challenges faced by the mechanical engineer in working toward the betterment of society through the development of new products contribute to making the profession both stimulating and rewarding.

The curriculum within the Mechanical Engineering program within the Bharti School of Engineering begins with a suite of courses in math, physics, chemistry and computer programming. This provides you with the foundational knowledge required for subsequent engineering courses in the areas of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, dynamics and controls, as well as materials and manufacturing. The program is structured to allow you to gain broad knowledge in all aspects of mechanical engineering while also providing you the opportunity to tailor your coursework to specific areas of interest. Finally, with an aim of providing future engineers with a broader view of the world, the technical content of the program is complemented by a selection of courses in the humanities, social sciences, arts, communications, economics, and management.

Program Regulations
To be in good academic standing and progress in the B.Eng. program, a student must:
1. Meet all conditions of admission
2. Not fail more than 6 credits in any one year
3. Achieve an overall average of 3.5 GPA (or C letter grade or 60%) in all courses in the previous year (or previous 30 consecutive credits)

A student is subject to a one year probationary period for failure to meet any of the above criteria under academic standing.

A student is required to withdraw from the Bharti School of Engineering if he or she:
1. Does not satisfy all conditions after one probationary year or 30 consecutive credits
2. Fails 42 credits or more
3. Has not achieved good academic standing in two consecutive years or 60 consecutive credits
4. Fails to obtain the minimum academic grade and satisfactory lab performance where appropriate in a course on a third attempt

A student who is required to withdraw may petition the Senate Committee on Academic Regulations and Awards for readmission after one calendar year. Such an appeal should have a recommendation from the director of the school before being considered by the committee.

Students in good academic standing who choose to discontinue their studies at the end of the first or any other year, with successful completion of that year, may apply for readmission with advanced standing. Cases are considered on an individual basis.

***Time limit: The Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) degree must be completed within seven (7) years of initial registration in the program.
