A History of Innovation
The Stevens family were pioneer engineers, inventors and entrepreneurs whose achievements molded American society and mechanical engineering. Stevens Institute of Technology was founded in 1870 by Edwin A. Stevens, son of Colonel John Stevens III, to have a single, rigorous engineering curriculum leading to a degree designated "Mechanical Engineer."…
The Department of Mechanical Engineering educates its students with a broad-based foundation in fundamental engineering principles and liberal arts together with the depth of disciplinary knowledge needed to succeed in a career in mechanical engineering or a related field, including a wide variety of advanced technological and management careers.
