Under this plan, you'll earn a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in mechanical engineering from Missouri S&T and a BS in physics from Missouri State.
Dual Major: Mechanical Engineering and Physics
Why dual-major in physics?
Adding the physics major is especially helpful for mechanical engineers who want to work for:
-
Aerospace manufacturers.
- Defense contractors.
- Laser companies.
- Medical centers.
- Semiconductor manufacturers.
