Clemson University offers a wide variety of courses for all specializations in mechanical engineering. My specialization is Design and Manufacturing. The courses offered at Clemson are essential for a design and manufacturing engineer to learn. For courses such as additive manufacturing and experimental methods in thermal sciences, lab access is provided to make students understand the processes physically. Some professors do plan an industry visit as a part of their course curriculum. For courses such as Advanced Design Methodology, Manufacturing Optimization, and Engineering Optimization, real-world problems or projects are taken as a course curriculum.

The fee for the graduate program of Mechanical Engineering is $12500 per semester (9 or more credits). However, assistantships are available for students choosing the MS Thesis option. These assistantships are provided each semester based on the thesis advisor's recommendation. The living expenses are quite low in Clemson and cost around $400-$500.

Everything is Brilliant. Be ready for 2 years of sleepless nights but it is worth it if you are ready to work hard.

Around 16000 dollars per semester.
