Why major in
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING at The University of Texas at Arlington?
Mechanical engineers design cars, autonomous vehicles, and robots. They are also concerned with efficiency of power systems and design, build, and test composite materials for use in a variety of applications.
Mechanical engineering majors study areas such as mechanical design, robotics, energy generation, manufacturing, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, materials science, and dynamic systems and control.
Our students make lasting friendships and contacts in dozens of student organizations like the Formula SAE racing team and ROVER Society.
Experience counts, and you’ll get it here.
Earning a degree is more than just going to class!
More than half of our students complete a co-op or internship to gain practical work experience prior to graduation, and they’re often hired by the companies they intern with. You can find your own opportunity, or the Engineering Co-op/Internship Office can help you.
Students may work alongside faculty on funded research, doing real lab work and gaining valuable skills. Qualified students may use federal work-study funds to participate in such research, and the College of Engineering sponsored more than 40 undergraduate research projects last year.
Finally, all students complete a capstone course prior to graduation, finding solutions to real-world problems, often with financial support from an industry partner.

DIVERSITY. AFFORDABILITY.
RESEARCH SPENDING. These are just a few
of the reasons I chose to study engineering
at UTA. It is one of the best decisions
I’ve made and I can’t wait to put my technical
knowledge to use, out in the real world.

An Ideal LocationUTA is located in the heart of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States. Arlington is located between Dallas and Fort Worth and is a center for sporting events, tourism and manufacturing.
The Metroplex has one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters in the United States. Also, just minutes from campus, DFW International Airport and several interstate highways allow easy access to global collaboration and commerce.
There’s plenty to do here: the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys and Major League Baseball’s Texas Rangers both play about two miles from campus, and the Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium regularly hosts blockbuster concerts and other major events. There’s an excellent music scene in Dallas and Fort Worth, and plenty of shopping and entertainment options throughout the region.

I CHOSE UTA because it was my most affordable option with a great engineering
program. Since I’ve been here, I’ve been lucky enough to apply engineering design
skills to projects of my own.
