Mechanical engineering is, perhaps, the most diverse and general of all engineering fields. Mechanical engineers plan, design, and direct the building of everything from paper clips to space shuttles. They design power sources, yet also tackle problems that affect the environment. If a project involves energy production and utilization, mechanical engineers will be involved. Among other examples, they work on engines, power plants, electrical generation, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning. They can be found in all types of companies, including those involved in manufacturing, transportation, health care, and insurance. No other field of engineering provides a better professional base for interdisciplinary endeavor.

The Mechanical Engineering Program at Tri-State University is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
