Project Ideas for Engineering Mechanics Students

Analyze, simulate, and optimize mechanical systems under stress, strain, and dynamic conditions through rigorous engineering principles.

⚙️ Introduction

Columbia University’s Engineering Mechanics program focuses on understanding how forces affect motion, deformation, and stability. These project ideas push students to apply theory in mechanical modeling, experimental analysis, and simulation-based research in solid mechanics, dynamics, and material behavior.
