BSME in Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science
The combined BSME in Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science (College of Engineering and Khoury College) provides expertise in both disciplines. Mechanical engineering involves the design, development, and manufacture of machinery and devices to transmit power or to convert energy from thermal to mechanical form in order to power the modern world and its machines. Its current practice has been heavily influenced by recent advances in computer hardware and software.
This program is new for Fall 2024.
