Admission Requirements

Non-Credit: Anyone who is eligible to take undergraduate coursework is eligible to enroll in this course. 

For Credit: Mechanical Engineering can use this class as a degree elective. The prerequisite of EGN 4950 (Capstone Design I) is to ensure that the student is an upper-level engineering student. The prerequisites can be waived, but that is determined by the student and whether they feel they have the knowledge equipped to take the course and pass the certification.

Tuition Assistance

In order to be eligible for financial aid or military benefits, the courses must apply to your degree, and, for financial aid, you need to be degree-seeking. Financial aid is not available for non-degree-seeking students. NCEES FE Mechanical exam cost ($175) is not included.

Career Advancement

The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam is the first step in the process of becoming a professional licensed engineer (P.E.). Jumpstart your career towards becoming a professional licensed engineer and prepare for the FE exam in the mechanical engineering discipline. Being a PE is an absolute requirement for management positions or a clear differentiator amongst your peers for career advancement. Mechanical Engineers make on average $90,160 per year with a 7% job outlook growth rate.
