PRESENTATION OUTLINE
MECHANICAL ENGINEER
- Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics, and materials science for the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems.
- Mechanical engineers generally work in professional office setting. They may occasionally visit worksite where a problem needs their personal attention.

"JOB DESCRIPTION"
- Mechanical engineers provide efficient solutions to the development of processes and products, ranging from small component designs to extremely large plant, machinery or vehicles. They can work on all stages of a product, from research and development to design and manufacture, through to installation and final commissioning.
- They are responsible for analysis and design of commercial, industrial,governmental, and institutional projects.
"EDUCATION AND TRAINING"
- Prospective mechanical engineering technicians usually take courses in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and mechanical design in a program leading to an associate's degree. ABET accredits programs that include at least college algebra, trigonometry, and basic science courses.
- Time to complete education It takes at least 4 years of undergraduate education to become an entry-level mechanical engineer. A master's degree in mechanical engineering will take an extra 2 to 4 years. A Ph.D. may take another 4 to 7 years to complete.
"OPPORTUNITIES FOR ADVANCEMENT"
- Graduate education is essential for engineering faculty positions in higher education, as well as for some research and development programs. Many experienced mechanical engineers earn graduate degrees in engineering or business administration to learn new technology and broaden their education and enhance their project management skills. Many become administrators or managers after obtaining a graduate degree from lows payment of $52,000.00 to a higher to $121,530.00 Per year.
"SALARY AND BENEFITS"
- High-level is IT Manager from $43.00 per hour or ,$10,329 month to $123,950 per year
- Middle-level Information Security Analyst from $30.75 per hour or $7382.00 per month to $88,590 per year
- Middle-level Mechanical Engineer from $28.00 per hour of $6715.00 per month to $80,580 per year.
- Low-level Computer Programmer. From $26.5 per hour or $6,345 per month $76,140
- Benefits medical, dental and vision insurance; vacations; paid sick leave and holidays; and retirement benefits. Certain employers also offer profit sharing, disability insurance, education assistance and flexible work hours.

"APTITUDES AND VALUES REQUIRED"
- Complex Problem Solving - Identifying complex problems and reviewing related information to develop and evaluate options and implement solutions.
- Speaking - Talking to others to convey information effectively.
- Writing - Communicating effectively in writing as appropriate for the needs of the audience.
- Coordination - Adjusting actions in relation to others' actions.
- Service Orientation - Actively looking for ways to help people.
- Personal required-A mechanical engineer uses computer software programs to design or redesign various types of mechanical devices, such as engines, machines and robots. While technical abilities and math skills are vital to success, top mechanical engineers also possess certain personal qualities, including creativity and strong communication and problem-solving skills
