Facilities
The Department of Mechanical Engineering has state-of-the-art labs that offer students hands-on learning experiences in the different disciplines of engineering.
Mechanical Engineering Labs
Thermal Systems Lab
The Thermal Systems Lab, located in Building 4, Room 107, contains our Engines lab, an HVAC lab, a wind tunnel, and our fluid power lab.
Engineering Materials Lab
This lab contains equipment for our materials and mechanics of materials experiments. This includes our tensile tester, hardness tester, torsion tester, stress and strain measurement, and impact testing. The lab also houses machinery such as a mill, lathe, and drill press.
Enterprise Design Lab
Students participating in the Enterprise program can utilize this lab to collaborate, conceptualize, and prototype their designs for their projects. This lab is located in Building 4, Room 248.
Mechanical Engineering Lab
The Mechanical Engineering Lab, located in Building 6, Room 601, on the Emerald Coast Campus at Fort Walton Beach, houses all of the thermal and mechanical laboratories and the Enterprise design space needed for our students there.
CNC Advanced Manufacturing Lab
The CNC Advanced Manufacturing Lab is located in downtown Pensacola inside the Museum of Commerce building. It houses a lathe and mill and is available for training, research, meetings, and prototype production for both students and the community.
