Mechanical Engineering Minor

For information, contact the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 56 Garland Hall, 513-529-0710.

This minor is for students not majoring in smart manufacturing engineering or mechanical engineering. This minor provides fundamentals of mechanical engineering, including a variety of industrial applications involving product design, experimental analysis, and engineering modeling techniques. It combines a strong base in engineering science with project-based laboratory and design experience.

A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 is required for all courses in the minor. None of these courses may be taken on credit/no-credit basis.
