    "description": "The B.S. in Mechanical Engineering program helps you gain an understanding of core concepts such as mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, materials science, structural analysis and electricity. You'll pair these core principles with tools like computer-aided design software to design and analyze manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, cars, aircraft, robotics, medical devices and much more.\r\n\r\nThe mechanical engineering department boasts esteemed international faculty and a dedicated staff who ensure that you gain the skills needed to achieve your personal and professional goals. Throughout your coursework, you'll get hands-on experience in applying the principles of engineering, science and mathematics to model, analyze, design and realize physical systems, components and processes. Plus, be sure to take advantage of the professional networking and internship opportunities with the university's partners — many of whom are industry leaders across Florida.\r\n\r\nUpon graduating with your mechanical engineering degree, you can pursue advanced studies or prepare to go directly into the industry. With top engineering companies around Central Florida, many graduates choose to stay around the area.\r\n\r\n<strong>Related Programs and Minors:</strong>\r\n\r\n<ul> <li><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/degree/aerospace-engineering-bsae/\">Aerospace Engineering, BSAE</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/degree/bioengineering-minor/\"><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Bioengineering, Minor</span></a></li> <li><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/degree/engineering-leadership-minor/\"><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Engineering Leadership, Minor</span></a></li> <li><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/degree/materials-science-and-engineering-minor/\"><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Materials Science and Engineering, Minor</span></a></li> </ul>",
