I'm a mechanical engineer, and I've been wanting to better understand the computational side of the tools I use every day. Do you have any recommendations for learning resources if one wanted to "relearn" FEA from a computer science perspective?

Start with FDM. Solve Bernoulli deflection of a beam

Have a look at FEniCs to start with.

I learned it for the first time from this[0] course; part of the course covers deal.ii[1] where you program the stuff you're learning in C++.
