Mechanical Engineering at Northeastern University

Northeastern University's curriculum focuses on applied mechanics, thermofield engineering, materials science, and controls. These courses in each field serve as the framework for advanced analytical and creative design courses, culminating in a two-semester capstone project. Across the curriculum, faculty encourage students to use computer-aided design tools and high-performance computer workstations.

Northeastern University's cooperative education program, established almost a century ago in the College of Engineering, is among the largest and most innovative in the world. Northeastern University's co-op advisors connect students with over 2000 engineering businesses in 40 states and throughout the world to help them advance their careers.
