What is it? � Mechanical engineering is the design, construction, and use of machines. � Mechanical engineering is the broadest engineering out of them all. � In mechanical engineering you can be doing electrical, dynamics, combustion, etc.

Education � Job future outlook is 9% between 2010 and 2020 All Mechanical Engineers need to know mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, materials science, structural analysis, and electricity. � The average salary of a mechanical engineer is $ 81, 000 � You need at least a bachelor’s degree in Engineering to graduate.

Work Day � Mechanical engineers usually never work alone, they always work with others. � Early career engineers work in testing labs and field work. � Some sit in front of a computer and use 3 D Cad tools to design machines. � They also check production lines so that they are working soundly. � Labs and Workshops in Mechanical Engineering

Products � Mechanical Engineers can work on many different things. � Jet engines � Motor Vehicles � Heating and Cooling systems � Watercrafts

Companies � As a mechanical engineer there is no company that doesn’t need one. � They can work anywhere, and they can work in the field and in offices. � Some companies that hire many mechanical workers are Duke Energy, P&G, Motorola, AT&T, and many more. � Mechanical Engineering Careers
