 Mechanical engineers have analytical minds and tend to have an expertise in fixing things  Focuses on machines, dynamics, moving parts, and systems  Engineering is a profession that uses math and science, along with studies, experience and practice, to develop ways to economically use materials and forces

 Automotive Engineering- car manufacturing  Aerospace/Aeronautical Engineering- aircraft, space vehicles, rockets  Nuclear Engineering- Nuclear Energy: nuclear fusions, radiations, movements of atoms, fission and fusion energy  Robotics- robotic arms/legs etc  Marine Engineering- on the sea, marine vessels, ships etc.  Acoustical Engineering- supression/generation of sound ex: soundproof room/ quieter machines

 There will always be new advances with technology rising.  Better standard of living  AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING : FASTER, NICER, SMOOTHER, HIGH-TECH, GAS- EFFICIENT, ECO-FRIENDLY CARS!

 Roughly 1.6 million engineers were employed in the US in 2009  15% of those engineers were mechanical engineers  Second largest percentage behind Civil Engineering  Students could search for openings in internship level positions.  Career Fairs are helpful and being part of an organization can keep you up to date

 A Variety of Mechanical Engineering specific Courses  Fluid mechanics, statics, dynamics  Thermodynamics/ heat transfer  Hydraulics  Materials engineering  Design Graphics  Other Foundations: social sciences, history, ethics, humanities  Math, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, English

 Projected 5% growth from 2012 to 2022 (slower than average)  Job growth varies depending on which industry you work for

 The BE (basic engineering) classes - BE 1200, BE 1300, BE 1310, BE 2100, BE 2550  The ME (mechanical engineering) classes - ME 2200, ME 2400, ME 2420, ME 3300, ME 3400, ME 3450, ME 4150, ME 4210, ME 4300, ME 4410, ME 4500, ME 4420

 Recognizing an issue with a customer  The use of Conceptual Design consisting of: drafts, Ideas, and various solutions  Any Modifications  Testing: Analysis of the designs  Improving a prototype  Communicating: Drawings and Blueprints  Production: Finished Design, Manufacturing, Distribution.

 Technology is rapidly changing and expanding, therefore many mistakes could be made which require people to fix them.  This is where engineers are needed.

 These are likely to affect the disciplines by giving them something to fix.  Engineers will also have to keep up with technology as it changes.  For example, automotive engineering is changing by the minute. There are recalls called often for the new cars. Engineers have to be the ones to solve the issues being caused.

 If you have a innate curiosity about the way something works…  If you add extra contraptions to improve the quality of something….  If you want to improve the quality of living for yourself, but more importantly others….  If you want to BE THE CHANGE AND MAKE THE CHANGE
