Mechanical Engineering | Doctoral Degree
University of Vermont
Students entering the program have generally received a M.S. degree in mechanical engineering or a closely related field in engineering. Applicants with other backgrounds outside engineering will be evaluated individually and may be required to first complete undergraduate technical course work in the first semester.
Description
UVM's Mechanical Engineering program continuously updates their curriculum to address modern topics in mechanical engineering, and to offer a breadth of courses that makes studying in their program more flexible, whether you intend to earn an Ph.D. as a continuing student from local industries, or directly obtain a doctorate right from your bachelor.
Most of our graduate students are full-time and actively engaged in research projects with one or two faculty mentors who will be dedicated to your success. The size of the program also enables you to have close interactions with the rest of the faculty, and to regularly participate in the life of the program via our weekly seminars and invited speaker presentations.
Financial Assistance
Funding, Grants, & Scholarships
A limited number of funded graduate research and graduate teaching assistantships (GRA or GTA) are available in the department each year and will be offered based on merit, research fit and continuity of progress to PhD students and some M.S. students. Funding offers are made available to you by faculty advisors, generally soon after you have received the Program’s admission decision, and renewed on a yearly basis.
