Students
If you want to surround yourself with students who demonstrate a special
dedication to learning and a willingness to challenge themselves inside
and outside the classroom, you'll have no trouble finding those students
in RIT's mechanical engineering programs. Check out what some of our students
have to say about their RIT experiences, and some of the great things
that they have accomplished:

Students Clubs and
Competition Teams
Mechanical Engineering
Our students are engaged.
They are active, and we need to challenge them and offer them
opportunities to come together, to apply their skills in a highly
effective, and ethical manner, and to coordinate their actions with
other members of the team. Our competition teams and co-curricular
clubs are designed to provide our students with that opportunity, with
the added twist of giving our students the chance to apply the
technical skills learned in the classroom and laboratory to an open
ended design problem. |

First Year Students
Mechanical Engineering
Over one quarter of our
entering class participated in high school music programs before
coming to RIT, while 70% of them have taken AP exams, and two thirds
have participated in sports. Our first year students have volunteered
to bring peace to Cyprus, work in their local hospitals, or support
the special olympics. Many of them want to design cars, or
become inventors, while some have already set their sights set on
getting a Masters in Engineering, or an MBA. |
