Drexel University

Mechanical engineering is a crucial part of rapidly advancing fields such as manufacturing, transportation and communications, introducing a new demand for engineers with the diverse skills, global viewpoint, and communicative abilities to fill the opportunities being created.

The industries typically associated with mechanical engineering have also expanded their roles, which means that engineers are no longer tied to just design – they’ll be involved with design, analysis, and manufacturing of products useful to society, but will also be immersed in the studies leading to these developments. Drexel prides itself on preparing students to perform capably in these roles, balancing interdisciplinary courses, lab exposure, design projects, and co-op experiences, providing the technical depth to back up their technical breadth.
