Aerospace and mechanical engineers design and build the tools, machines, and aeronautical technology that propel us forward, moving us into the future.
They are essential to manufacturing, oil and gas, aerospace, defense, civil infrastructure, health care, and consumer products industries. Led by our award-winning faculty with a philosophy of experiential learning, students gain a broad range of knowledge making them strong competitors in today’s job market and preparing students at all levels to solve engineering problems that are seen on a daily basis. Through project-based education, working in teams of fellow students, and the 31 full-time faculty of the school, students gain a unique educational experience.
A hands-on workforce development workshop on advanced construction technologies, focusing on 3D concrete printing, recently took place at the Fears Structural Engineering Laboratory. The workshop provided undergraduate students from Civil Engineering (CE), Architectural Engineering (AE), and Aerospace/Mechanical Engineering (AME), ranging from sophomore through senior levels, with a real-world research environment for experiential learning.
The University of Oklahoma and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in partnership with the Air Force Sustainment Center, Air Force Research Laboratory and the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex, will launch Phase II of a groundbreaking additive manufacturing research program to revolutionize how the military maintains and modernizes legacy weapon systems.
The demand for engineers continues to grow across Oklahoma and the nation. OU Engineering is responding by investing early in future talent through Engineering Days, a summer program that helps students see engineering as accessible, practical, and impactful.
