B.S in Mechanical Engineering vs. Engineering Mechanics

<p>Differences in content, focus, marketability, prep for grad school, etc. for undergrad degree in ME vs. Eng. Mech.? Any comments, opinions, experiences? Thank you!</p>

<p>I was an ME major, and it seems like, for the most part, the Engineering Mechanics program at my school (UIUC) was there primarily to prepare you for graduate school while ME was for grad school or industry. I am sure you could get jobs with an EM degree, but most of my friends who were in it (if not all of them) ended up in graduate school.</p>
