Populations are undoubtedly depressed due to recent drought in southeast Oregon . The volunteer has the right to be assigned to a job that is worthwhile and challenging and to be informed about activities within the program . Oregon populations are likely very depressed due to recent drought . Then , find a professor in a related field who thinks it is a worthwhile project and agrees to supervise it . Fire , mechanical , or even chemical means may be used to control invasive or noxious plants . In their courses and research , these faculty explore the myriad ways in which societies shape the lives and relationships of women and men — intellectually , socially and psychologically . Our curriculum keeps pace with recent developments in molecular biology and the study of evolutionary processes , including proteomics , computational genomics , molecular evolution and epigenetics . Mechanical engineering students are expected to formulate a degree program that includes basic coursework in several aspects of mechanical engineering . A recent survey suggests that 75 percent of College students have substantial research experience , as defined by their participation in scholarly activities in all departments and programs . Critical for experimental research , the department ’ s Microfabrication Facility provides a key resource in which semi-conductor materials can be processed into various electronic and mechanical structures for both undergraduate and graduate research . At the same time , the curriculum offers the flexibility to specialize in one or more areas in mechanical engineering such as computer-aided-design and manufacturing ( CAD / CAM ) , energy engineering , design and product development , fluid mechanics , or structure mechanics , or even such cross-disciplinary areas as robotics , biomechanics , micro-electromechanical systems ( MEMS ) , or mechanics of materials . It embraces electrical and optical technologies , nanotechnologies and their diverse applications . The curriculum is sufficiently flexible so that the student can pursue a number of elective options in depth either in traditional mechanical engineering subjects or in another engineering program at Penn. Flexibility in the curriculum , primarily in the junior and senior years and coupled with a senior design project , enables a student to pursue an elective program in fields such as aeronautics , robotics , computers , electronics , business administration , advanced mathematics , automatic control , and materials .
