2. Program FormatProgram ObjectivesThis Masters degree in
engineering pro-vides students with in-depth scientific
andtechnical knowledge of mechanical engi-neering fundamentals and
design applica-tions, with emphasis on militarily relevantsystems,
particularly submarines andsurface ships.Course OptionsME3201
Applied Fluid MechanicsFluid properties, fluid statistics and
stability, equationsof motion, potential flow, introduction to
boundary lay-ers, fluid forces and moments on bodies, and an
intro-duction to 1-D compressible flow.ME3150 Heat
TransferIntroduction to the various modes of heat transferand their
engineering applications.ME4162 Convection Heat
Transfer(thermal/fluids)Fundamental principles of forced andfree
convection. Laminar and turbulentduct flows and external
flows.ME4220 Viscous Flow (thermal/fluids)Development of continuity
and Navier-Stokes equa-tions. Exact solutions of steady and
unsteady viscousflow problems.ME0810 Term PaperEvery student
conducting thesis research will enroll inthis course..MSME (ME)The
MSME (ME) program is a 24 month, part timeprogram. Students
generally take one course at atime, each within six months.This
program offers instruction in three modes ofdelivery including:
CD/DVDs and textbooks VTC Instruction Online resources* Blackboard*
ElluminateThe program is designed for students whose ca-reer path
will not allow them to attend a full timegraduate education
curriculum.EligibilityTo be eligible for thisdegree, you must be
asuccessful graduate ofthe Navy Nuclear PowerSchool officer
curriculum.Additionally, a favorablecommand endorsement isrequired
on all applications.Third Party CoursesTo help provide flexibility
and improve theopportunity to complete the program, coursesare
offered in cooperation with the Universityof Washington program and
with the GeorgiaInstitute of Technology.Obligated ServiceThis
program is considered fully fundedgraduate education within the
meaning of10USC2004. The program requires threeyears of obligated
service. The OBLISERV isconcurrent with any other obligations
andcommences upon completion of (or droppingfrom) the
program.ME4161 Conduction Heat TransferSteady-state heat conduction
in multi-dimensions withand without heat sources. Transient
conduction. Numeri-cal methods for heat conduction. Mechanical
Engineeringapplications.Benefits to StudentsThis program builds on
the materialsin Naval Nuclear Power School, andprovides the student
with the potentialto advance their naval career by hav-ing a
greater knowledge of engineer-ing systemsand to obtainthe
engineeringskills that are inhigh demand inindustry.ME4420 Advanced
Power and PropulsionThis course presents an advanced treatment of
powerand propulsion topics, primarily for naval applications.
