Mechanical Engineering SUNY Korea

Overview

The Mechanical Engineering course from SUNY Korea curriculum provides students with a solid education in mathematics and the physical sciences along with a broad sequence of courses covering thermal processes andfluid mechanics, mechanical design, solid mechanics, and the dynamic behavior and control ofmechanical systems. 

Students also take courses that introduce them to the use of advanced computational methods for engineering design and analysis as well as data processing and analysis. 

A series of laboratory courses introduces them to sensors and electronics, modern instrumentationand experimental techniques used in engineering for tasks ranging from product design, evaluation and testing to research. In addition, students can select electives to provide either higher level academic training in preparation for graduate school or a broader exposure to subjects related to engineering practice to enhance their preparation for a job after graduation

The mechanical engineering faculty has adopted the engineering criteria “1” through “7” student outcomes, namely:

• An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems by applying principles ofengineering, science, and mathematics.

• An ability to apply both analysis and synthesis in the engineering design process, resulting indesigns that meet desired needs.

• An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data,and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.

• An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.

• An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global,economic, environmental, and societal contexts.

• An ability to recognize the ongoing need for additional knowledge and locate, evaluate,integrate, and apply this knowledge appropriately.

• An ability to function effectively on teams that establish goals, plan tasks, meet deadlines,andanalyze risk and uncertainty.
