Mesa State College and the University of Colorado at Boulder have created an innovative partnership to deliver a mechanical engineering program in its entirety in Grand Junction.
The Mechanical Engineering Partnership Program prepares students for careers in a wide range of industries through the rigorous study of mechanical engineering. Students participate in hands-on engineering design projects beginning in their freshman year and continuing through senior design projects.
Residence at Mesa State provides CU-Boulder engineering students the unique option of small class size and more contact with faculty while experiencing an engineering program equal in quality to that delivered on the CU-Boulder campus.
Students completing the program will be awarded a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree from CU-Boulder. First-year coursework was offered beginning fall 2008 on Mesa State's campus, and the program will be accredited by the American Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET).![]()
Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines. The undergraduate program in mechanical engineering prepares students for careers in a wide range of industries.
