Launch into your career with a mechanical engineering degree from Mizzou, where you can gain hands-on experience with competition teams such as Mizzou AeroTigers, Mizzou Space Program, Mizzou Racing and more. By learning through doing, students engage in engineering as soon as they step onto campus.
The Student Experience“I always try to be in a more diverse, broad background so I can understand different angles and perspectives. I felt like I could get that at Mizzou.”
ABET Accreditation
The University of Missouri program, B.S. Mechanical Engineering, is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET (www.abet.org), under the General Criteria and Program Criteria for Mechanical and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.
Mizzou Engineering students tackle real-world problems through the Missouri Method, including senior capstone projects. This semester, projects included creating new medical dispensers, optimizing production flows, and designing a blue hydrogen plant.
Connor Biggs, Caden Cooley, Ryan Deloney, Kathryn Eberhart, Cameron Epperson and Cooper Hinkle developed a medicine dispenser for people with fine motor disabilities for their capstone.
Mizzou Engineering faculty member Michael Poehlman teaches a class on leadership in engineering, featuring guest speakers to share advice with students.
Nearly 200 students graduated from Mizzou Engineering this past weekend during the commencement ceremony held on Friday, Dec. 13, at the Hearnes Center.
