Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
Entry requirements
The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering offers Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees. The B.S. in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering, or the equivalent, with a quality point average of at least 3.0/4.0, is normally required for admission to all programs.
Prospective students may apply for either the M.S. or the Ph.D. program. Students with B.S. degree (i.e., without a M.S. degree) can apply for Ph.D. program directly or may choose to first obtain M.S. degree and then enter the Ph.D. program. Students who complete M.S. program and wish to continue for Ph.D. must re-apply for admission to the Ph.D. program.Applications for admission are evaluated by the graduate committee on the basis of criteria reflecting academic quality and probable success in advanced study. These criteria are:
- undergraduate and (where applicable) graduate grades
- GRE exam scores
- letters of recommendation
- a statement outlining past accomplishments, professional objectives, special interests, and educational plans
Superior grades and exam scores are, of course, important for admission. However, cases exist where students not having the highest grades were admitted partly on the basis of strong letters of recommendation clearly indicating superior ability and dedication in undergraduate research. It is advantageous to request letters from individuals who have significant knowledge of your abilities-for instance, professors who have taught you in more than one course or with whom you have carried out an independent study project or research. You should give these individuals as much lead time as possible so that they will not be not rushed and will be able to write detailed and thoughtful letters about you.
English Proficiency: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
