Email: [email protected] Description of Major:

The Bachelor of Science (BS) program in the Department of Mechanical Engineering is designed to provide background for a wide variety of careers. The discipline of mechanical engineering is very broad but generally emphasizes an appropriate mix of thermal science, mechanics and materials, dynamic systems, and design. Graduates typically enter various energy, aerospace, or product manufacturing industries, or government laboratories. The undergraduate program is designed to impart a broad knowledge in basic and engineering sciences and to provide a solid understanding of contemporary engineering practices. The program also seeks to provide students with a foundation in communications skills, principles of economics, and other fundamentals upon which they will draw in their professional careers. Special emphasis is placed on communications skills by requiring extensive written laboratory reports and design project presentations. Computer literacy is bolstered by a variety of course assignments throughout the program and especially in the design courses, wherein students are exposed to a number of design software programs widely used in the engineering industry.

Prerequisite Coursework:

The State of Florida has identified common program prerequisites for this University degree program. Specific prerequisites are required for admission into the upper-division program and must be completed by the student at either a community college or a state university prior to being admitted to this program. Students may be admitted into the University without completing the prerequisites but may not be admitted into the program. Students are strongly encouraged to select required lower division electives that will enhance their general education coursework and that will support their intended baccalaureate degree program. Students should consult with academic advisors in their major degree area. The following lists the common program prerequisites or their substitutions necessary for admission into this upper-division degree program: 1. MAC X311 or MAC X281* 2. MAC X312 or MAC X282* 3. MAC X313 or MAC X283* 4. MAP X302 or MAC X305* 5. CHM X045/X045L or CHMX045C or CHS X440/CHM X045L* 6. PHY X048/X048L or PHYX048C or PHYX043/X048L* 7. PHY X049/X049L or PHYX049C or PHYX044/X049L*

*This is a state common prerequisite. Substitutes identified in the state Common Prerequisites Manual at http://www.flvc.org will be accepted.

Note: State-wide common prerequisites are always under review. For the most current information and for other courses that may serve as acceptable alternatives, visit http://http://www.flvc.org

Department Requirements:

Admission Requirements to Major Program of Studies:

All students transferring to the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering are initially placed into the pre-engineering major. To transfer from pre-engineering into the Mechanical Engineering major, students must complete the following requirements: A grade of “C” or better from any institution attended in EGN 1004L (1) First Year Engineering Lab, Calculus I, Calculus II, General Chemistry I with Lab and General Physics I with Lab. A

single repeated attempt in only one of these courses is permitted. Students with more than one repeated attempt do not qualify for admission to the engineering college. A student who satisfies this requirement except for the completion of EGN-1004L First-Year Engineering Laboratory may receive a waiver for this portion of the requirement. Transfer students who will earn an AA prior to enrollment at the College must have completed Calculus I and at least one other pre-engineering course (excluding EGN-1004L). We prefer that AA transfer students have the majority of the pre- engineering courses completed (excluding EGN-1004L) prior to transferring to the College of Engineering. Students should contact the College of Engineering at 850-410-6423for more information.

Major Program of Studies:

First year lab (1 hour) must be completed as part of the pre- engineering requirements.
