Graduate Programs

The Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering is home to three graduate fields offering both Ph.D. and Master of Engineering degrees. The Mechanical Engineering Field also offers an M.S. degree. Graduate fields cross traditional college and department boundaries and afford a graduate student maximum flexibility in designing a program represented by faculty from virtually any discipline on campus. Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, and Theoretical and Applied Mechanics are three of ninety-four fields of study that constitute The Graduate School at Cornell University.
