Truthfully, I have always been immersed in Physics studies since the first time I learn about it. I love the fact that by learning Physics, it can teach us how to think critically and help in solving unexpected problems that we encounter in our daily life. I found that mechanical engineering is the course that can help me continue my interest in this subject since it involved most of the concept in Physics such as mechanics, kinematics, and thermodynamics. Mechanical engineering is also appealing to me because I love to design new things as well as handling the machines and tools. I also believe that by specializing in this course, I can have the opportunity to handle various types of machine and therefore, the knowledge that is gained through this will become such a great assistance to me in creating and manufacturing my own systems in future.
I started to think that mechanical engineering is so exciting when I started to watch the television program which is called ‘Pimp My Ride’. This program shows the audience on how to restore and modify a poor condition car to become a great one and even look like a brand new car. I was always amazed on how the professional engineers in that show come out with a great idea and able to work together in harmonious way even though sometimes they argue about a few small things while upgrading the cars. Truthfully, they had inspired me to become a great engineer just like them especially Mad Mike, one of the outrageous engineer in that
Staring at engine components of a car as well as holding a smartphone with almost unbelievable thickness fascinated me in many ways indirectly leaded me into getting to know more through different sources about machines ranging from transportation to communication devices. Two years of A-level preparation, further solidified my interest in this area as I found myself very fond of learning mathematics, physics and mechanics in particular. In addition, my curiosity in the operation and dynamics of objects naturally influences my choice of degree, leading me towards Engineering as it is a discipline which satisfy my own interest and most probably bring out the best of me.
Mechanical engineering is something that has always interest me for the reason being that you can create ultimate robots that have abilities that the human body can not posses. Such as sticking to walls just like a geico. This gives the viewer a new understanding of how earth is the biggest and eldest engineer there is, but that engineers can get an inspiration with animals or things that are around us. This inspires not only those who created
Understanding how things work, taking it apart through analysis and then re-assembling the whole from its parts is what captivates me. It has been clear now for some time that engineering is what I want to do in later life and this combination of inquisitiveness, together with an analytical mind and a feel for basic engineering is why I want to study this subject at university. At college I am currently studying Mechanical Engineering which I am enjoying and excelling at in the subject. My time at college is helping me to gain more confidence in my academic ability. Teachers constantly challenge me to achieve more and set my goals high.
All in all, mechanical engineering is a great profession to pursue. The course to get there might be hard, but wroth it in the long run. MS Choices, bls.gov, and my job shadow helped shape my career path which ever may it lead
Mechanical Engineering is a field that requires constant updating. With the advent of new technology, growing fields, and an unpredictable global market, it takes a lot of divisive planning in order to "engineer" a career path for myself that is suitable for any number of growing fields. I plan on acquiring my master's degree in mechanical engineering next semester, so a career plan is what I need. Choosing the right career takes a lot of careful timing, and it takes a lot of careful and precise plans in order to create a suitable job prospect. I think that a career in computer manufacturing and hardware is probably the best choice for me. Since computer hardware is constantly evolving, it's something that you can count on to stay busy.
The mechanical engineering industry will experience a shortage of jobs within the next 15 years due to the large amount of engineers aged 55 and over. Mechanical engineers hold the second highest number of jobs in engineering with 264,000, behind civil engineering with 274,000 and in front of industrial engineers with 229,000 (Wright). On average, there are 17 mechanical engineers for every job opening in the U.S. A company loses about $17,000 for every three months a mechanical engineering position stays open (Randstad). Mechanical engineers can expect more open jobs in the future.
Ever since I can remember, I have been fascinated by the way things work, from dismantling and maintaining my own bike to modelling a lift for apartments as a part of a science exhibition; my curiosity was directed at unravelling the functioning of devices. Egged on by my parents and teachers and my innate predilection for science and technology, a mechanical engineering degree was the logical
It is quite true that with proper nurturing of this curiosity one can transform a fascination into an excellent mechanical faculty, Mechanical Engineering is an intuitive science. The intuition
Starting from the first steam engine, Aeolipile to today’s Mars rover, the transcendental pervasion of mechanical engineering has shaped the life on this planet as we know it today. This progress seems never ending as the new technologies are engendering ever new complex challenges. Therefore, merging of fundamental research with real world applications is demanding now more than ever. As a student of Mechanical Engineering, I am well aware of these facts and have decided to pursue an active career in cutting edge research. I am strongly motivated to undertake graduate studies in order to pursue an MS in Mechanical Engineering, which, I believe, will prepare me for my further study at the doctoral level.
Mechanical engineers design, manufacture, develop, research, and test machines, tools, engines, and other mechanical devices. Mechanical engineering is considered one of the broadest engineering disciplines out there. Internal combustion engines, steam and gas turbines, and electric generators are some of the power-producing machines engineers in this line of work, will work on, while machine tools, refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment, industrial production equipment, and robots are some
I always wanted to get my hands working, whether it be playing with Legos, building computers, or just helping a friend with school projects. I enjoy creating and designing the next best thing or improvements on existing products. These qualities points to engineering as the career best suited for my interest, with mechanical engineering being the field perfect for my skill sets. However, this career is not a full proof plan. Just like any other profession, it has some downsides and problems. Some problems in this field include: a shortage of engineers, lack of proper education, and jobs being lost to robots. These problems can get worse in time as the population rises and as technology advances.
Engineering is a very important specialization and it can be founded in every organization, I am interested in studying engineering especially mechanical engineering which is the subject of understanding the principle of engineering such as forces and how do they effect on substances, the functionality of systems and how they work, manufacturing of tools, devices, machines and their parts with different sizes, shapes and different functions, and operation of mechanical systems.
I would spend hours together experimenting and analyzing various mechanics around me like the ball bearings in my bicycle & roller skates and would be fascinated by my spring loaded toy cars. During my higher secondary schooling, I showed special interest in mathematics and physical sciences and in order to supplement the education that I received in school, I became a habitual reader of science magazines and books. As a direct consequence of this, I came to know about the latest developments in the field of science and engineering, especially aerospace and manufacturing engineering as it deeply interested me and I was naturally inclined to like the subject. The basics I learnt in school only whetted my appetite for more learning. It was but natural I would choose to take up manufacturing engineering as a career choice when I joined
Ever since I could remember there has always been an inclination towards science. The desire to understand how things worked has always intrigued me. Set on the inclination I always explored the basic application of science i.e. building a lemon battery to designing a simple pulley lift at science fairs at school. Thus making Production Engineering a good option. It provides a strong engineering foundation and also educates on the management of an industry. This is the very reason I was able to decide that I wanted a career in this field.
I developed a liking for design when I was doing my under graduate course in Mechanical Engineering . Designs are highly creative and to make a successful design high technical knowledge is involved.
