As an engineering mechanics major, you will design, measure and analyze complex structures of everything from networks of human cells and, to novel materials constructed at the nanoscale, to roller coasters and spacecraft. Engineering mechanics is the home of aerospace engineering at UW-Madison.
Your engineering mechanics education will prepare you for careers in a wide variety of fields, including health, clean energy, space exploration and many more. As one of the smaller engineering majors, we focus on building a community that supports our students’ success during their degree and as they launch their careers.
