Introduction
Dive deeply into the areas of fluid mechanics and materials, robotics and human-machine interaction, micro and nanoscale engineered devices, as well as aerospace and marine systems. This flexible, interdisciplinary master’s program allows you to design your degree with advanced training in several specific areas of mechanical engineering that are of interest to you.
The Mechanical Engineering Department in the Whiting School of Engineering (WSE) of Johns Hopkins University offers full-time day school programs at the Homewood campus in Baltimore.
About the Program
The Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) is a flexible program that provides excellent preparation for doctoral studies or professional practice in mechanical engineering.
Graduate students benefit from opportunities to take part in the cross-disciplinary collaboration across university divisions, giving them access to resources and expertise from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Applied Physical Laboratory, as well the chance to partner on projects with industry, the federal government, and research institutions worldwide.

A focus area must be selected. While required to narrow your study, your focus area will not appear on your degree.
- Biomechanics: Study the human body, modeled as a mechanical system. Apply fundamental mechanical engineering principles to explore the body’s structure and functions.
- Advanced Manufacturing: Study the automation of design and manufacturing systems including computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and robotics. Understand the relationships between process machinery, process conditions, and material properties.
- Robotics and Controls: Study an array of aspects of robot motion planning including both rigid and compliant motion, coordinated motion, error detection and recovery, and motion in an unknown environment. Analyze the kinematics and dynamics of robotic manipulators.
- Solids/Mechanics of Materials: Study the deformation and failure of mechanical structures as well as the different classes of engineering materials. Perform trade-off studies based upon design criteria including strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, manufacturability, and failure.
- Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Science: Learn to solve practical engineering fluid flow problems. Examine laminar and turbulent flows, plus vorticity and circulation. Understand a variety of experimental methods.
