Mechanical engineering

Channel | updated May 29, 2013

The education that students receive from the MIT MechE Department prepares them for successful careers in their chosen field. Part of that educational process is about receiving the skills and information needed to succeed outside of the classroom, so that students are ready to face the challenges of the professional world.
