On April 25, 2022, the CSU Chancellor’s Office issued a memo that GWAR will no longer apply to new and continuing graduate students (regardless of catalog year) at CSULB. Catalog copy has been updated on 07/21/2022 to account for this change.
The Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering (MSME) program aims to provide students with advanced training in sub-disciplines of mechanical engineering that combines modern engineering practice and rigorous theoretical framework to enhance students’ pursuit of professional careers and doctoral studies. The program involves application of mechanical engineering knowledge and skills to build students’ mastery in the areas of expertise in order to:
- Utilize advanced theoretical techniques in the design and/or analysis of engineering systems;
- Apply modern experimental and/or computational tools to design and/or simulate engineering systems;
- Promote the field of study through research and/or development of novel engineering solutions.
The areas of concentration in the MSME program include:
- Design and Manufacturing
- Dynamics, Vibration, Control, and Robotics
- Fluid and Thermal Sciences
- Mechanics and Materials
Further information on the above areas of concentration may be obtained from the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering’s website.
