Programma di Laurea in Ingegneria Meccanica e Aerospaziale

Department research advances design in diverse fields such as manufacturing, micro-and nanotechnology, vehicles, biomechanics, aerostructures, sensors, controls, mechatronics, combustion, and energy systems. Graduate student researchers acquire skills to address both fundamental issues in these areas and to design complex, multi-component systems. This highly collaborative environment fosters multidisciplinary research while drawing on the study of mechanical engineering, mathematics, electrical engineering, materials science, biology, and nanotechnology.

Recruiters from the industry are active here, knowing that in addition to having hands-on design experience, our students are well-grounded in engineering fundamentals. They study with professors who “wrote the book” on their discipline and work on design projects with researchers who are international authorities in their field. Our graduate students are able to work closely with faculty in a friendly but demanding environment where teamwork and faculty mentoring are important, as is the cross-disciplinary, collaborative culture that is unique to UC Davis.

Since its founding in 1962, the UC Davis College of Engineering has graduated more than 29,000 engineering and computer science students studying in disciplines ranging from biotechnology to space exploration.

Throughout its history, the UC Davis College of Engineering has made a positive difference in the world through socially responsible engineering. Today, we are proud to prepare more than 4,600 undergraduate students and nearly 1,200 graduate students to become the next generation of engineering leaders and entrepreneurs.

By connecting people and technology, we solve the world’s most pressing problems

and create the next generation of engineering leaders and entrepreneurs. Our faculty, students, staff, and partners collaborate to design a better tomorrow and make a positive difference in the world. It’s in everything we do.

Engineering a better world calls for solutions of a different caliber, demanding innovation across disciplines using a design-centric approach. From energy, climate, and transportation to biomedicine, agriculture technology, and space exploration, we strive to bring a sustainable, healthier, and the more resilient world within reach.
