Course Outcomes

What is Mechanical Engineering?

Mechanical engineering is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches.

Is Mechanical Engineering a good career?

Yes. A mechanical engineering degree can lead to careers in many fields, including manufacturing and aerospace. These careers provide strong annual salaries.

What does a mechanical engineer do?

Mechanical engineers design power-producing machines, such as electric generators, internal combustion engines, and steam and gas turbines, as well as power-using machines, such as refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. Mechanical engineers design other machines inside buildings, such as elevators and escalators.

How to become a mechanical engineer?

To be a mechanical engineer, it is mandatory to complete a four-year course in Bachelor in Technology (B. Tech) in mechanical engineering. If a candidate can not do a four-year degree in engineering, they can also pursue a three-year diploma course in mechanical engineering from polytechnic colleges.
