Mechanical engineers research, design, develop, manufacture and test power-producing tools, engines, machines and mechanical devices. From the refrigerator in your kitchen to the car in your driveway, products made by mechanical engineers are found in everyday life.

Why Choose Mechanical Engineering?
Most every machine you interact with on a daily basis was created by mechanical engineer. Your cell phone is one, your toaster is another. The car you drive and the air conditioner that helps stave off the summer heat--they’re all machines.

It is a vast field with a variety of job opportunities. This field is considered the "general practitioner" of the engineering disciplines, focused primarily on the conversion, transmission and use of power.

The mechanical engineering program prepares you to work in industries including:

• Automotive
• Aerospace
• Biomedical
• Construction
• Green Building Design
• Solar Energy
• Power Generation

What Will You Learn?
You will learn the fundamentals of engineering disciplines, including:

• Machine Design
• Electric Circuitry
• Thermodynamics
• Heat Transfer
• Fluid Mechanics

Knowledge of these topics will help you design machines, engines, and other systems. The course of study involves theoretical, computer-based, and laboratory training, finishing with a hands-on two-semester capstone design project.

What Will You Do?
The need for skilled mechanical engineers exceeds the number of existing qualified workers, and in New York City, there’s no shortage of work for people in this field.

Accounting is the language used to communicate financial information to stakeholders. Accountants capture, summarize, present and analyze financial information to help their clients make sound decisions.

Peace and Justice Studies is the academic program that embodies Manhattan College’s Lasallian commitment to advancing social justice. Manhattan College has one of the oldest peace and justice studies programs in the United States. The first Peace and Justice Studies course was offered in 1966, and the Peace and Justice Studies major was established in 1971.

Why Choose Peace and Justice Studies?
You will understand and evaluate structural injustice, the aspects of human nature that lead to violence and war, and the work of social movements that seek to realize peace, nonviolence, and social justice. You will be able to take courses from across an array of disciplines in the Schools of Liberal Arts, Business, and the Sciences, and so develop an interdisciplinary, and thus profound and complete understanding of these issues. The program prioritizes rigorous training in critical thinking and research, practical peacebuilding skills, and experiential learning in the form of internships and community-engaged courses.

What Will You Do?
Students graduate from the Peace and Justice Studies program with a broad, interdisciplinary knowledge of issues related to peace, conflict and war, human rights and social justice, as well as advanced critical thinking, peacebuilding and research skills. Our students are thus prepared for a wide array of professions, as well as for advanced study in many disciplines and professional schools.

Environmental engineering uses the principles of engineering, chemistry, biology and physics to address a wide variety of environmental problems from safe drinking water supplies to climate change.

Why Choose Environmental Engineering?
Environmental engineering is a broad and diverse discipline that applies scientific principles to solve real-world environmental problems. As a graduate of this program, you’ll be prepared for careers in private industry, environmental consulting firms and government agencies, and work to solve the many challenges of providing safe and reliable drinking water, clean air and waterways, proper disposal of solid and hazardous waste, effective environmental site restoration, and responsible management of our natural resources.

Our environmental engineering program is recognized nationally for producing well-prepared environmental engineers. The program dates back to 1939 and proudly boasts that six of its alumni have been inducted into the National Academy of Engineering.

What Will You Learn?
Our environmental engineering program offers both master’s of engineering (M.E.) and master’s of science (M.S.) degrees. In your studies, you will learn the engineering principles and design applications for:

• Drinking water treatment
• Municipal and industrial wastewater treatment
• Surface water quality modeling
• Groundwater engineering
• Environmental sustainability
• Climate change resiliency
• Water reuse and resource recovery
• Air pollution control systems
• Recycling
• waste disposal technologies

Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior. It helps us understand how humans and animals think, feel, act and interact individually and in groups. Many modern challenges are rooted in human behavior, and psychological knowledge can help us find solutions.

Why Choose Chemical Engineering?
The psychology program emphasizes both the humanistic and scientific aspects of the field, and is designed for students who want to enter psychology as a profession or as a foundation for further training in other professions in education, healthcare, technology and beyond.

What Will You Learn?
You will learn to analyze, evaluate and apply psychological principles and theories, all of which are applicable to you professionally and personally. As a psychology major, you will:

• Engage in a critical examination of a variety of exciting psychological concepts
• Develop exceptional research skills, spanning a variety of techniques
• Develop essential intellectual, critical thinking, and analytical skills
• Hone your communication skills - both written and verbal
