The theoretical and applied mechanics doctorate gives students a solid base in engineering science and mathematics. It prepares them for analytical or experimental research and for tackling varied modern engineering problems.
Coursework covers rigid-body and deformable-body mechanics, applied math and laboratory techniques. Research topics include solid mechanics, granular and swirling fluid flows, orbital and celestial dynamics, and biomechanics and biomathematics. The program is taught in person in Ithaca and takes at least six semesters, with additional guidance from the field's faculty.
Prospective applicants should check with the graduate field office and the Cornell Graduate School about admission requirements, funding and application timelines, because this catalog entry concentrates on the academic content and milestones of the degree rather than on costs or deadlines.
