Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers research, develop, design, manufacture, and test tools, engines, machines, and other mechanical devices such as gears, flywheels, gyroscopes, belt drives, compressors, joints, ducts, nozzles, and pumps. They develop these and other devices to drive generators, engines, turbines, refrigeration and air conditioning equipment, machine tools, material handling systems, elevators and escalators, computers, artificial limbs, pumps, industrial production equipment, and robots used in manufacturing.

As a graduate, you will find employment opportunities working all areas of manufacturing, mechanics, research and development, technical sales, management, and consulting.
