Mechanics and Materials Tracks

Sustainable materials and resilient infrastructure are critically important today as our communities strain to sustain limited natural resources, accommodate growth, and replace worn, declining infrastructure.

Pursue one of our Mechanics and Materials track to create innovative design built on strong fundamentals for the sustainability of existing structures, and for sustainable designs of new structures and systems.

Structural Design Track

Core in the area of Mechanics and Materials with a focus in Structural Design.
