Program Information
- Students must earn an minimum overall 2.5 GPA in the Mechanical Engineering major to graduate.
- Students who have completed 20 credits of Mechanical Engineering major courses must maintain a major GPA of 2.5. If a student’s major GPA drops below 2.5, then the student has one-semester probationary period to raise the major GPA above 2.5. If the major GPA is still below 2.5 after the probationary period, the students can retake Mechanical Engineering courses to raise the major GPA but cannot take any other Mechanical Engineering classes until they are off probation.
- Students must attempt the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination.
- Mechanical engineering graduates can apply their skills in a variety of industries such as aerospace, automotive, manufacturing and production, automation, building and construction, agriculture, and biomedical.

Licensure Notification
This program typically leads to licensure/certification and was designed to meet such qualifications for the state of Utah. Students who are or may be planning to pursue licensure/certification in any other U.S. state or territory may need to meet additional education requirements. This is not a reflection of SUU’s accreditation or quality, as each state and territory regulates their own education requirements for occupational licensure.
Students enrolled in a teacher preparation program may potentially be able to use a Utah educator license to obtain licensure through reciprocity. Additional information may be found through the Department of Teacher Education’s reciprocity table.
An overview of all of SUU’s programs that lead to licensure/certification and the programs’ current determination statuses may be found at www.suu.edu/provost/licensure.html.
