The School's laboratories are primarily located in Felgar Hall and the Engineering Research Center on North Campus. Specialized laboratories have been developed for combustion and propulsion, composite materials and structures, dynamics and control, stress analysis and mechanical behavior of materials, fatigue, fluid flow and heat transfer, aerodynamics, laser velocimetry and fluid measurements, nondestructive evaluation techniques, thermal imaging, and radiative heat transfer.

These laboratories are equipped with modern instrumentation and dedicated data acquisition systems. A CAD/CAE/CAM network utilizing Sun microcomputers and a departmental PC laboratory are available for use in courses and research. Several personal computer (PC) laboratories are also available on campus; the College of Engineering maintains a rapidly expanding PC Laboratory furnished with IBM-compatible and Macintosh personal computers. The University Computing Services IBM 3081 and the Engineering Computer network utilizing DEC workstations are also available for graduate instruction and research.

The L.A. Comp Subsonic Wind Tunnel is located on the Norman campus at the foot of the OU water tower. It is a closed circuit, 4 ft. x 6 ft. test section tunnel, capable of producing wind speeds over 175 miles per hour.  For more information, click here.
