Department of MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

FAMU—FSU College of Engineering

Chair: Chiang Shih; Associate Chairs: Buzyna, Collins, Hruda; Professors: Buzyna, Chandra, Chen, Collins, Garmestani, Gielisse, Krothapalli, Lourenco, Schwartz, Shih, Van Dommelen, Van Sciver; Associate Professors: Alvi, Hollis, Hruda, Kalu, Luongo; Assistant Professors: Cartes, Foreman; Visiting Assistant Professor: Moore; Affiliated Faculty: Haik, Han, Hussaini, Howard, Johnson, Loper, Tam

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, and design. Graduates typically enter various energy, aerospace, or product manufacturing industries, or into government laboratories.

The undergraduate program in mechanical engineering is designed to impart knowledge in basic and engineering sciences, to develop communication skills, to recognize economic principles, and to acquire a grasp of contemporary engineering practices. Beyond the basic core curriculum, the courses are grouped into four major areas: thermal and fluid sciences, mechanical system sciences, mechanics and materials, and engineering design. The courses in each of these areas emphasize a basic foundation in the engineering sciences combined with a strong design orientation and extensive laboratory experience. To experience individual creativity, a two-semester senior design project is carried out which couples theory and analysis with the physical world. Special emphasis is placed on communication skills through a rigorous writing of several laboratory reports and design project presentations. Computer literacy is tested through various courses, and the students are exposed to current industrial design software.

The department maintains well-equipped teaching and research laboratories in each major area of interest. Included are fluid mechanics, heat transfer, mechanics and materials, vibrations, and robotics laboratories. The College of Engineering provides several computer labs running a variety of standard design and analysis software packages, including Algor FEA modules, PTC's Pro/Engineer and Pro/Mechanica, MSC.Software's Adams and Mathworks MATLAB.

Program Educational Objectives

Consistent with the missions of The Florida State University, Florida A&M University and the College of Engineering, and in accordance with the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria, the department has developed the following five program educational objectives and eleven mechanical engineering (ME) program outcomes to fulfill the undergraduate educational goals:

  1. To ensure students' mastery of core curriculum in mathematics, basic sciences, engineering science, laboratory experience, and design as well as depth through a flexible choice of related technical electives;
  2. To develop students' competency in engineering design early in the curriculum, with its integration throughout the curriculum, grouping together contiguous disciplinary areas to make their connectedness clear, and to provide a year-long capstone design experience focused on the product realization process with real world engineering practice issues;
  3. To enable students to work individually and in teams, both in their discipline and in multidisciplinary settings, and to communicate effectively in oral, written and visual forms;
  4. Through curriculum and extracurricular activities, enable students to deal with contemporary issues, and to develop a sense of professionalism, creativity, ethical behavior, and leadership, and recognize the need for and capability to engage in life-long learning; and,
  5. Prepare students for work in an increasingly multicultural and diverse society by exposing them to a multicultural environment in and outside the classroom. The following are the significant constituencies of our program and provide valuable feedback for our continued improvement.
