is Mechanical 1 What is Mechanical Engineering? What is Mechanical Engineering? Jaren Esquivel School of Engineering and Sciences What is Mechanical 2 What is Mechanical Engineering? Engineering is the application of science and mathematics by which the properties of matter and the sources of energy in nature are made useful to people (Merriam-Webster, 2015). Mechanical engineering is a specific branch of engineering that deals with mechanisms. Michigan Technological University defines it as the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering from design to manufacturing to the marketplace for any object. The principles that mechanical engineers use are those of mathematics and physics. They apply these and the…
technologies because the work of an engineer is to “enable the future” not merely to “foresee” it. As a mechanical engineer and a founder & head for a sustainable technology based start-up I realized the importance of technology enabled sustainability for a healthier and superior future and hence the need for Masters in Mechanical Engineering was felt. I believe that the acquisition of knowledge can never be a discrete accomplishment. It is the culmination of continued effort and the prelude to…
machines; it is about being able to mesh many systems together, no matter how different, as well as about updating old systems. Engineering takes more than simply a proficiency with natural science, physics, and math, but also a creative and analytical mindset, to truly become one of the world real life problem solvers. Even though it is not an easy field of work to…
that I love is math. I have always had a passion for math and numbers, since when I saw little that has been my strongest subject. Also, I had always had the curiosity of how things work. As a child, probably my favorite toy was a screwdriver. Curiously I would unscrew my toys and every part of it to see how they worked. And now as a young adult, I have decided that mechanical engineering is the best career for me, as every aspect of that career matches my personal characteristics. Mechanical…
Just like in any other job there are pros and cons. First pro of mechanical engineering is that there is high-level Salary. Being the designers of important equipment Mechanical engineers are paid a lot with an average annual income, according to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statics, of 85,264$. Money isn 't everything in the world but this is an incentive. The second pro is that there is job flexibility, unlike a specialist who has no choice but to do one thing with their skill, mechanical engineers…
Mechanical Engineering is one of the oldest and broadest categories of engineering. I choose it mainly because it seemed to fit my mechanical background. Also it covers such a wide subject area that it would provide plenty of job opportunities after completing my degree. My academic plan is to complete a bachelor degree for mechanic engineering and then continue into a masters for petroleum engineering. I have worked in the oilfield in the past and I find that area of study very interesting.…
As a Mechanical Engineer, there are a surplus of professional and unprofessional organizations to join in order to improve life as an engineer. These organizations are made specifically to assist all engineers, including minorities in STEM, such as black engineers and women. Examples of these helpful organizations include: National Society of Black Engineers, National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering, Society of Women Engineers, and Phi Sigma Rho National Sorority Inc. The…
Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest, largest, and broadest engineering disciplines. Mechanical engineers use the principles of mechanics, materials, and energy to design and manufacture machines and devices of all types. The key characteristics of the profession are its flexibility, breadth, and individuality-a decided advantage in a changing world. Passion towards mechanics began early in my childhood when I started learning basic science in school. My interest toward machines hiked as…
information about mechanical engineering, I interviewed Graham Jessup, a graduate from the University of Washington and a mechanical engineer at Electroimpact Engineering; a company based in Mukilteo Washington. Electroimpact is a world leader in design and manufacturing of aerospace tooling and automation. During the interview that took place through several emails, I learned much about what mechanical engineers are required to know, and how they use that knowledge to fully accomplish day to…
am going to analyze today is “Outstanding women in mechanical engineering” written by Hoh, Yin Kiong. This article concerns how many women stray from engineering and science based jobs because of people’s perception of engineers and scientists. It also gives an amazing example of a very successful woman engineer and her accomplishments throughout her career. Hoh, Yin Kiong talks about in the article that the exposure to female mechanical engineers would push more young women towards this career…
