The Mechanical Engineering (ME) Program at UVU is an engaging and challenging major that prepares students for exciting careers and graduate programs in Mechanical Engineering. Students begin their study by completing a series of foundation courses in Math, Science, Writing and Engineering. After successful completion of these foundation courses, students will apply and be accepted to the Mechanical Engineering Program before enrolling in upper division (3000 level or higher) major courses. A student not meeting all of the admission requirements may be admitted with provisional status for one semester.
Applications for admission to the mechanical engineering program are accepted until two weeks prior to the start of a new semester. However, we encourage you to apply as early as possible.

Student may apply to the program if they have not completed all foundation coursework. A provisional admission to the program is possible. However, students will not be allowed to take professional engineering courses (3000 and higher) if the prerequisites are not met. It is recommended that students meet all prerequisite coursework required prior to applying for admission.
