The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers integrated undergraduate programs on two campuses to prepare students for careers in mechanical engineering. Students can pursue a B.S. degree at the Lexington campus, or at the Paducah campus through the College’s Extended Campus Program. The undergraduate program offers flexibility, as well as sufficient depth and breadth of study through its variety of course offerings. Specific components of undergraduate study include not only the fundamentals of engineering, but also advanced coursework in specialized areas. Students will conclude the program with a two-semester senior capstone project incorporating elements of design, creation and collaboration with participating companies under real-world conditions.
The Mechanical Engineering Program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.
