Wright State's mechanical engineering master's, offered by the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, emphasises portable concepts in the design and analysis of complex physical systems using modelling, synthesis and optimisation techniques. The department describes the degree as bridging interdisciplinary areas including controls, robotics, electronics and communications. It is awarded as a Master of Science in Engineering with a major in Mechanical Engineering. Total credit hours and thesis options are held in the Academic Catalog rather than on the programme page.
What the fee covers: the non-resident (international) full-time rate — a flat $13,900 per semester for Engineering, Business and Science graduate non-residents at 11-18 credit hours, over two semesters. Tuition only; mandatory fees are extra. Because it is a flat full-time band, the figure needs no assumption about the degree's credit total.
Fee year: current published rate; Wright State states no academic year on this page (read August 2026).
English requirement as published: TOEFL iBT 79 (or CBT 213 / PBT 550), stated on the programme page for international applicants.
Before you budget: Wright State's full-time non-resident band is 11-18 credit hours at a flat $13,900 per semester, which is what you pay on an F-1 visa; the part-time rate is $1,288 per credit hour for 1-10.5 hours. The programme page does state entry requirements: a minimum 2.7 overall undergraduate GPA (or 2.5 with 3.0 over the last 60 semester hours), GRE scores for applicants from non-ABET-accredited undergraduate programmes, and TOEFL iBT 79 for international students. Personal statements and recommendation letters are optional. Wright State states no academic year on its rate page, and mandatory per-semester fees are extra.
