UIUC’s Mechanical Engineering BS empowers students to master dynamics, thermofluids, design, and robotics while tackling grand challenges in clean energy and advanced manufacturing. Students 3-D-print lattice structures, code autonomous bikes, and simulate wind-turbine aeroelasticity on high-performance clusters. Capstone teams partner with industry and national labs, sending prototypes from concept to test track and launching alumni into R&D, automotive electrification, and climate-tech entrepreneurship.
