Mechanical engineering involves the design, production, and operation of machines. Mechanical engineers apply scientific and mathematical principles to solve technical problems in fields like manufacturing, construction, and transportation. They design and oversee the manufacture of mechanical systems including engines, machines, and other equipment. Mechanical engineers require strong technical skills in areas like thermodynamics and material science as well as management abilities in production, quality control, safety, and economics. Their work impacts many aspects of modern life.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 1 What is engineering?
US DEPARTMENT OF LABORS DEFINITION Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs.
ABET DEFINITION
Engineering is the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences gained by study, experience, and practices applied with judgment to develop ways to utilize economically the materials and forces of nature for the benefit of mankind.
UNESCO DEFINITION
Engineering is the field or discipline, practice, profession and art that relates to the development, acquisition and application of technical, scientific and mathematical knowledge about the understanding, design, development, invention, innovation and use of materials, machines, structures, systems and processes for specific purpose.
WIKIPEDIA DEFINITION
Un inge nieur est un professionnel exerant des activite s de conception, d'innovation et de direction de projets, de re alisation et de mise en uvre de produits, de syste mes ou de MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 2 services impliquant la re solution de proble mes techniques complexes. Ces responsabilite s supposent un ensemble de connaissances techniques d'une part, e conomiques, sociales, environnementales et humaines d'autre part, reposant sur une solide culture scientifique et ge ne rale.
MANSERS DEFINITION
Engineering is a profession in which the engineer identify and understand the technical social needs, search for solutions and implement them, based on his mathematical, scientific and technical background, and also through his creative thinking, gained by study and experience.
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 3 What is Mechanical engineering?
Mechanical Engineering is the profession related to the study and use of machines. They construct build design manufacture machines and engines. A machine transforms, transmits, or uses energy, force or motion for a specific purpose.
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 4 Major technical & scientific subjects:
Machines are designed to fulfill some function (design), this include sketch, drafting CAD, CAS. Machines require power (Thermodynamics, combustion, Electrotechnic). Machines pollute (air pollution control). Machines make heat that has to be removed (heat transfer). Machines move, so their motion must be understood (kinematics, dynamics) and controlled (controls). Machines must be constructed (manufacturing), this includes CAM. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 5 Machines have to be made from something (materials). MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 6 Major management skills: PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT
Knowledge of raw materials, production processes, quality control, costs, and other techniques for maximizing the effective manufacture and distribution of goods, motivating, developing, and directing people as they work, identifying the best people for the job Administration and Management, Knowledge of business and management principles involved in strategic planning, resource allocation, human resources modeling, leadership technique, production methods, and coordination of people and resources, is essential for mechanical engineers.
QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Customer and Personal Service - Knowledge of principles and processes for providing customer and personal services. This includes customer needs assessment, meeting quality standards for services, and evaluation of customer satisfaction. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 7
SAFETY MANAGEMENT
Public Safety and Security - Knowledge of relevant equipment, policies, procedures, and strategies to promote effective local, state, or national security operations for the protection of people, data, property, and institutions. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 8
ECONOMICS AND ACCOUNTING Knowledge of economic and accounting principles and practices, the financial markets, banking and the analysis and reporting of financial data.
SALES AND MARKETING Knowledge of principles and methods for showing, promoting, and selling products or services. This includes marketing strategy and tactics, product demonstration, sales techniques, and sales control systems. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Page 9 General skills:
GENERAL CULTURE Mechanical engineers should acquire a very broad technical and scientific knowledge knowledge of the maximum possible machines (how they work, how they are madeetc.) Also they must possess knowledge about the job market, politics and the economic situation of the country.
TEAMWORK A great engineer understands that they are part of a larger team working together to make one project come together successfully, and therefore, must work well as part of that team.
CRITICAL THINKING Using logic and reasoning to identify the strengths and weaknesses of alternative solutions, conclusions or approaches to problems.
READING COMPREHENSION & WRITING Understanding written sentences and paragraphs in work related documents, and Communicating effectively in writing as appropriate for the needs of the audience.
SPEAKING & ACTIVE LISTENING Talking to others to convey information effectively, persuading others to change their minds or behavior. and giving full attention to what other people are saying, taking time to understand the points being made, asking questions as appropriate, and not interrupting at inappropriate times.
