Students studying mechanical engineering gain expertise in design, manufacturing, mechanics and thermal sciences. Our students learn a broad set of skills and knowledge that can be applied to many different fields, from medicine to environmental science to robotics. The first two years of the program are taught by CMU faculty, and the second two years of engineering courses are taught by CU Boulder faculty who live permanently in Grand Junction.

  •  Gain a hands-on education 

  •  Learn how to solve complex engineering problems that address major societal challenges

  •  Earn a CU Boulder undergraduate degree entirely in Grand Junction
