For questions about the study of mechanical engineering at Stevens, please visit the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is the oldest academic department at Stevens. With a few exceptions, students enrolled in the school at its founding studied for the degree of mechanical engineering (M.E.), and the earliest academic catalogs all list the name of the school as Stevens Institute of Technology: School of Mechanical Engineering. For many years, other engineering disciplines, e.g., civil and electrical, were taught within the mechanical engineering department before becoming established as their own departments. In 1996, the department was incorporated into the newly formed Charles V. Schaeffer, Jr. School of Engineering, the predecessor of the Schaeffer School of Engineering & Science, the department's current home.
