Department of Mechanical Engineering
In Mechanical Engineering we teach design, analysis and simulation methods to use scientific discoveries and inventions for developing next generation products and processes. The aim of our ME curriculum at NJIT is to provide a broad-base in Mechanical Engineering, preparing students for successful careers in a large variety of fields such as aerospace, automotive, biomedical, computer-aided design, engineering and manufacturing (CAD/CAE/CAM), defense, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), nano/micro technology, novel and/or smart materials, power, robotics, and other applications of engineering. A degree in ME is versatile enough to provide a solid basis for alternate careers such as law, medicine, and business management.

When Matthew Schaefer was a freshman, he set himself a lofty goal. In four years, he’d graduate from NJIT with a perfect grade-point average -- a 4.0. He is a scholar in the Albert Dorman Honors College. Now, as graduation nears, Matthew’s GPA is 3.987. He missed his mark by a hair, but by setting himself such a high standard, he managed to win two of the university’s top awards. He was recently named the Mechanical Engineering Department’s Outstanding Senior as well as the Newark College of Engineering’s (NCE) Outstanding Senior
