Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines. Mechanical engineers apply principles of mechanics and energy to design machines and devices. They contribute to industries like energy, manufacturing, automotive, aerospace and more. As a mechanical engineering student, one will study forces, motion, structures, thermodynamics, materials, machine elements, economics, and more to prepare for a career applying the engineering design process to identify problems and develop solutions.
