By: Bryan Teoh

2. Mechanical engineering- is the discipline that applies engineering, physics, and materials science principles to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines

3. Mechanical Engineering Technicians
- Evaluate design drawings for new or changed tools
- Prepare layouts and drawings of parts to be made
- Review instructions and blueprints for the project Plan
- Assemble new or changed mechanical parts for products
- Set up and conduct tests to improving equipment performance
Record test procedures and results, numerical and graphical data
- Compare test results to design specifications and test objectives

4. Education
-An engineer must take certain courses to become an expert in mechanical technical engineering.
-They usually take courses in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and mechanical design in a program that later leading to an associates degree.
-An expert in this field must also complete an ABET accredit programs that at least college algebra, trigonometry, and basic science courses.
-Completing an associate degree in mechanical engineering technology opens the way to for a bachelor’s degree.

5. Important Qualities to be a Mechanical Technical Engineer
Problem Solving A big part of a mechanical engineer’s job is solving problems using mechanical or thermal devices. Mechanical engineers need to be strong analytical thinkers who are capable of solving problems.
Communication Skills Often, mechanical engineers develop a product for a client. They may have to explain complex machines or devices to people who aren’t familiar with mechanical engineering. They have to be able to explain their ideas clearly and effectively, and this takes strong communication skills.

6. Teamwork Mechanical engineering involves lots of teamwork
Teamwork Mechanical engineering involves lots of teamwork. Engineers often work in groups to invent technologies and solve problems. They might work with computer scientists or architects.
Creativity Mechanical engineering involves developing and designing products, which range from batteries to electric generators to medical devices. Inventing products involves a lot of creativity.
Math Skills Mechanical engineers need to be comfortable using math to solve problems. The math skills required in mechanical engineering include calculus and statistics. They need to be able to apply these skills to analyze problems and design solutions.
