2. The Founder Of Mechanical
Engineering.
–JAMES WATT (1736–1819.)
James Watt, the eminent Scot and
great scientist, who so improved
the imperfect steam engine of his
day that he may be termed the
Father of the Steam Age and the
Founder of Mechanical
Engineering, was born at

4. What is Mechanical
Engineering?
Mechanical engineering is
the branch of engineering
that deals with forces and
motion. It includes designing,
analyzing, developing, and
maintaining mechanical
systems.

6. Mechanical Engineering Is…
• Finding creative solutions to difficult
problems!
• Perhaps the broadest of all the
engineering disciplines.
• Working with motion, energy, forces,
and materials.
• Concerned with analysis, design,
manufacture and operation of areas
such as:
– Energy Defense

7. • Almost every industry needs
mechanical engineers.
• The curriculum is sufficiently
broad so students can take various
career paths upon graduation.
• You might find the subject both
exciting and challenging.
Why Mechanical
Engineering?
“Scientists discover the world
that exists; engineers create the
world that never was.”
-Theodore Von Karman

8. • Design
– Product Design
– Machine Design
– System Design
• Manufacturing, Process

• Sales or Technical Sales
• Management
What type of jobs do ME’s
have?

9. • Fabrication
– Coordinate fabrication of equipment
– Develop improved fabrication techniques and methods
• Testing
– Test quality, performance, safety, and reliability of products,
equipment, processes
• Research and Development
• Sales
– Work as technical salespersons for companies that manufacture
various products and equipment
– Work as a general salesperson for companies
• Maintenance and Operations
– Keep various plants and processes operating at optimum
performance
– Operations supervision and management
• Other
– Medical School, Law School, Business School, etc.
– Management
What can Mechanical
Engineers do?

10. Some Early uses of
Mechanical Engineering
• Pumping water
• Draining and ventilating
mines
• Building structures
• Designing scientific
instruments (telescope,
microscope, etc.)
• WarfareEarly mechanical engineering was largely trial and
error.

11. Mechanical Engineering
Major Areas of Research
• Acoustics and Dynamics
• Automation and Mechatronics
• Bioengineering
• Computer Aided Design
• Fluid Mechanics
• Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
Heat Transfer, Combustion and Energy
Systems
• Manufacturing
• Mechanics of Materials
• Tribology
• Nuclear Engineering

12. Aviation/ Travel
• Moving people quickly and efficiently
• Mimimize congestion
• More environmentally friendly
• Some scientist speculate the thought
of traveling like the “jetsons”
-teleportation

13. Conclusion
Mechanical Engineers: The world does
resolve around us
When the Mechanical rest, the World rust
2 years ago Logical, 1 year ago Digital,
Forever its Mechanical
