Master of Science - Mechanical Engineering - Thermal and Fluid Sciences (Fluids Engineering) (Thesis)

Worcester Polytechnic Institute’s Master’s in Manufacturing Engineering offers the skills and knowledge necessary to transform product ideas into functional, market-ready solutions with a focus on cost efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability.

This flexible program, available part-time or full-time, allows students to deepen their research and develop a comprehensive understanding of how material properties evolve throughout manufacturing processes—working closely with expert faculty across engineering disciplines. Students can specialize in a specific area—such as additive manufacturing, robotics, machining, axiomatic design, or materials processing—or pursue a broader scope encompassing multiple topics, including healthcare and design.

Whether pursuing careers in industry or research, graduates will join the next generation of engineers dedicated to solving the complex challenges of rapid industrial evolution by developing products that are environmentally safe, economically sustainable, practical, and impactful.
