To deal with such complex and often multidisciplinary problems, the engineer must have a thorough knowledge of analytical, computational, and experimental methods and a deep understanding of underlying physical principles. To achieve this level of understanding, graduate curricula in Mechanics and Computation are offered which include core work in solids, fluids and computational mechanics, dynamics, fracture and biomechanics. Course work is supplemented with research in the student’s specialized area of interest.
