Bachelor’s degree equivalent to a U.S. 4‑year degree, preferably in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Aeronautical Engineering, or related STEM fields — GPA should be at least 3.0/4.0, though exceeding this (e.g., 3.5+) is competitive.
Subject prerequisites: At least three semesters of calculus, one course in linear algebra, a proof‑based real analysis or advanced calculus, and ≥ 6 credits of upper‑division statistics. Basic programming skills (Python, C++, etc.) are also expected.
