Mechanical Engineering is counted among the oldest and broadest disciplines of engineering. Mechanical engineering is all about developing, designing, testing, and building. Mechanical engineers deal with everything which moves, from machines to components, to the human body. In mechanical engineering, students deal with applying material science and physics principles for designing, analyzing, maintaining, and manufacturing the mechanical systems. It involves using and producing mechanical and heat power for the production, designing, and operation of tools and machines.
Mechanical engineering is a program that introduces students to the knowledge and understanding of how machinery and heavy tools work. A mechanical engineering student acquires knowledge about the design of electric motors, automobiles, heavy vehicles, and aircraft. As a mechanical engineer, their responsibilities will include designing new batteries, medical devices to athletic equipment and air conditioners, automobile engines, personal computers to electric power plants, and producing many designs, leading to innovation.
A student aspiring to become a mechanical engineer should know what exactly is covered in the curriculum. In the first few years of engineering, students learn applied mathematics, applied chemistry, applied physics, mechanics of solids, basic electrical engineering, communication skills, engineering drawing, computer programming languages, etc. As the student clears the first year, they are introduced to core subjects like thermodynamics, solid mechanics, engineering materials, machine drawing, fluid mechanics, kinematics of machinery, manufacturing technology, machinery dynamics, electrical machines, heat, and mass transfer, control systems, etc.
The students who wish to pursue engineering should be 10+2 class passed, i.e., should have cleared Higher Secondary Studies under any recognized board like CBSE or any state board with a minimum of 50% in PCM. Students should compulsorily have Physics, Chemistry, and Maths as their core subjects. The students should also pass the government's entrance exams and test like MH CET, JEE, etc.
In manufacturing facilities, mechanical engineers are required and are the highest priority. According to the domain, the type of company for which the mechanical engineer is working, and depending upon the specialization area, the working criteria changes. They work on the control and design of a system that goes into the product and machinery's manufacturing process. They check for the new systems' efficiency and feasibility and carry the improvement process and quality management.
Government sectors like Indian Army, Civil Services, Indian railway, CESC, NTPC, BHEL, and ISRO hire mechanical engineers. One can also find a job in private sector companies. The mechanical engineers can work in the field of aerospace, acoustics, design, energy, automation, ergonomics, automotive, human health, autonomous systems, manufacturing and additive manufacturing, biotechnology, mechanics, composites, nanotechnology, CAD or computer-aided design, control systems, robotics, structural analysis, etc.
Immense career opportunities are working as a mechanical engineer. One requires adequate skills and knowledge to grab the right job or opportunity and make the best out of it. The demand for mechanical engineers is rising with the breakthroughs in analytical tools and materials!
