About AME

Invention, Career Readiness at Core of AME Programs

Aerospace and mechanical engineering at the University of Arizona is all about real life experiences that prepare students to contribute to the next discoveries in a wide range of areas – from space exploration and transportation to disease prevention and renewable energy.

Undergraduate and graduate students alike learn from and work alongside professors internationally renowned for their research in hypersonic flight, space situational awareness, heat transfer, tissue engineering and robotics, for example.

Gaining an Edge

Exceptional facilities such as high-speed wind tunnels, on-site machine shops and modern labs support invaluable hands-on experience. The university’s commercialization arm, Tech Launch Arizona, helps move inventions out of the lab and into the world. And, AME’s strong ties with industry giants translate into career opportunities for graduates.
