Imagine being part of a team challenged with designing, fabricating, testing, and launching a rocket into space. Students who thrive on such hands-on activities often find the Air Force Academy an ideal place to learn engineering. The Academy features some of the most cutting-edge technologies available anywhere to undergraduates. One such gem is the Applied Mechanics Laboratory. In this highly modern, well-equipped “workshop,” cadets learn how to use everything from a computer-controlled mill to composite material fabrication tools. Faculty – about 70 percent of whom are military officers -- provide guidance both in class and after hours. Instructors favor seminar-style classes over lectures, and they expect students to come to class ready to participate. (Curriculum guidelines suggest two hours of homework/study for every hour in class.) Cadets become second lieutenants in the U.S. Air Force upon graduation.

Front Range Community College offers 1 Mechanical Engineering degree programs. It's a very large, public, four-year university in a large suburb. In 2023, 2 Mechanical Engineering students graduated with students earning 2 Associate's degrees.
