The department supports student's aspiration to study abroad as a way to promote meaningful immersion experiences. Since mechanical engineering curriculum is tightly sequenced, interested students should work out a plan with their advisor as soon as possible. Ideally any study abroad would be undertaken during Sophomore or Junior Year. The yearlong capstone senior design sequence, requiring participation from beginning to end, precludes study abroad during Senior Year.
