Mechanical Engineering is the design, production, and use of mechanical systems that control and transform energy. Mechanical engineers deal with systems that involve motion such as aircraft, automobiles, robots, hydraulic control systems, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in buildings. It is a well-known and respected engineering discipline, which encompasses both traditional areas of engineering, such as mechanics, as well as emerging areas, such as nanotechnology.
Mechanical engineers work on some of the most important societal problems of our day. Mechanical Engineers help to develop alternative energy sources and devices. They improve the energy efficiency of the buildings in which we live and work. They also assist medical professionals to design new medical devices and procedures.
