Email us your CV with a short description of your research interests and how that matches our research.
Prospective MS students.
Students interested in Mechanical Engineering MS degree (with thesis) are encouraged to apply. Many MS students are not funded theses days (at many universities), and therefore MS applicants need to be able to self-fund their studies. However, occasionally funding for highly competitive and top MS students might become available (mostly partial funding).
