Overview

Mechanical Engineering is a very broad discipline. In general, mechanical engineers are problem solvers, interested in the design and analysis of physical objects. Mechanical engineers may consider the aerodynamic forces on an airplane and ensure that the structure will withstand them. Alternatively, they may design an air conditioning system using new coolants, increasing efficiency or reducing costs. Perhaps they design boilers to hold steam at high temperatures and pressures.
