Sample curriculum: Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics & Statistics and non-thesis M.S.E. in Mechanical Engineering

Graduate students enrolled in the Applied Mathematics and Statistics Ph.D. program can apply to receive M.S.E. in Mechanical Engineering after fulfilling the requirements of a non-thesis based Masters in Mechanical Engineering, i.e. they must successfully complete a coordinated sequence of ten courses with special emphasis in fluid mechanics and engineering mechanics.

Possible sequence of courses would include:

• 530.328 Fluid Mechanics II (Meneveau)
• 530.334 Heat Transfer (Herman)
• 530.601 Continuum Mechanics (Molinari)
• 530.621 Fluid dynamics I (Knio/Meneveau)
• 530.632 Convection (Prosperetti)
• 530.639 Scientific Computing (Chen)
• 530.625 Turbulence (Meneveau)
• 550.491 Applied Analysis For Engineers And Scientists
• 550.682 Numerical Analysis
• 550.723 Markov Chains

With these (or equivalent set) courses the student can petition the ME Department for award of a M.S.E. degree in Mechanical Engineering.

Completion of Ph.D. thesis in Applied Mathematics and Statistics requires additional courses according to Applied Mathematics and Statistics Department’s rules.
