Overview

Key features

The fundamental concepts of linear and nonlinear elasticity, plasticity, fracture mechanics, finite element analysis, mechanics of composites and structural vibrations will be developed in a series of undergraduate and graduate courses.

These concepts will then be applied in solving industry-relevant problems in a number of graduate level courses.

Mechanics of Structures students at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) will develop hands-on experience in using popular finite element packages for solving realistic structural analysis problems.

Programme Structure

Courses include:

Linear Elasticity
Nonlinear Elasticity
Analytical Fracture Mechanics
Dynamics of Structures
Finite Element Analysis
Mechanics of Composite Material Structures

General requirements

The general requirement for admission for a U.S. student is a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution, comparable in standard and content to a bachelor’s degree from the University of California.

An international student whose post-secondary education is completed outside of the U.S. is expected to hold a degree representing completion of at least four years of study with above average/very good scholarship from a university or university-level institution.

The $120.00 (for U.S. citizens and Permanent Residents) or $140.00 (for all other applicants) application fee must be submitted online by credit or debit card before the application can be processed.
