Stanford Engineering has long been at the forefront of groundbreaking research, education and innovation. Through the development and application of engineering principles across disciplines, we are tackling the major challenges of the 21st century.
The School of Engineering is home to 10 departmental and six interdepartmental major programs. Undergraduate Handbook. For details on program objectives and requirements, see the Handbook for Undergraduate Engineering Programs (UGHB) website. Here you will find a Major Programs page and requirements listed for Minor Programs and Honors Programs.
Established in 1894, it is one of nine engineering departments that comprise the school of engineering, and in 1971, had the largest graduate enrollment of any department at Stanford University. The department is currently located in the David Packard Building on Jane Stanford Way in Stanford, California .
Graduate Programs. At the graduate level, the Mechanical Engineering program aligns academic course work with research to prepare scholars in specialized areas within the field. Areas of specialization range from automatic controls, energy systems, fluid mechanics, heat transfer and solid mechanics to biomechanical engineering, MEMS and design.
The goal of the undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering is to provide students with a balance of intellectual and practical experiences that enable them to address a variety of societal needs. The discipline is very broad, encompassing elements of these areas: energy science and technology. propulsion.
We aim to give students a balance of intellectual and practical experiences that enable them to address a variety of societal needs, and prepares students for entry-level work as mechanical engineers or for graduate study in engineering.
The School of Engineering's Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (also known as "the d.school" ) brings together students and faculty in engineering, business, education, medicine, and the humanities to learn design thinking and work together to solve big problems in a human-centered way.
