The primary mission of the Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering Department is to provide quality graduates to meet societal and industrial needs. Contemporary society's and industry's problems are not only technical, but also social and economic. Our Department provides graduates with in-depth education in mathematics, science, engineering science, manufacturing processes and methods, and engineering design, as well as requiring a broad education in computing, business, and liberal arts. The Department is committed to excellence in undergraduate education: student learning, classroom effectiveness, assessment, engineering design integration, and student advising.
In the Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering Department, we consider faculty development as an essential part of educating students. In order to provide our students with the best education on state-of-the-art technologies and engineering methods, our faculty regularly attend professional conferences, workshops and seminars, participate in continuing education courses, and conduct research.
The Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering Department is central to Miami University's mission to serve the community, state, and nation. Miami educates men and women for responsible, informed citizenship, as well as for meaningful employment. The Department provides a technology perspective for the liberal education community and supports the Miami Plan and the Honors Program by providing minors, honors and foundation courses, thematic sequences, and a capstone experience. Also, the Department has strong multidisciplinary activities with Systems Analysis, Paper and Chemical Engineering, the Business School, the Psychology Department Ergonomic Center, and other programs within the University. These activities enhance students education and provide excellent opportunities for our faculty and students to engage with other learners.
