The classical mechanical engineering department that you’re thinking of might have cars, might have steam engines – we have all of those things, but we go so far beyond that.

MechE Connects Newsletter

Mechanical Engineering has expanded from its traditional areas to encompass many emerging technologies, ideas, and principles. This breadth allows our department to confront multidisciplinary challenges, while embracing the core principles that have always defined MechE... It would be impossible to showcase every facet of our work, or every contributor, but through the stories and highlights in this issue, we invite you to celebrate the breadth of MechE at MIT.
- Department Head A. John Hart.
