What's mechanical engineering for?

Mechanical engineering majors can be design engineers, equipment engineers and process engineers.

1. Design engineer

Design of various mechanical equipment such as molds, automobiles, household appliances, construction machinery and non-standard equipment. Using the commonly used mechanical design software.

responsible for industrial design in the process of new product development and product improvement; Be able to collect industrial design information in the industry market and put forward suggestions for product improvement; Participate in product research and development team, implement industrial design work according to product development plan: prepare corresponding technical documents and make suggestions on application for design patents.

2. Equipment engineer

refers to technical personnel engaged in various aspects of equipment management, equipment management system construction, equipment technical guidance, or equipment bidding and evaluation (equipment procurement), equipment inspection, organization of equipment maintenance and direct sales by equipment manufacturers. Need to be familiar with the principle of the managed equipment and the knowledge related to the equipment.

The way out for equipment management can be transferred to design positions, technical support or sales of equipment.

Third, the process engineer

is responsible for the processing technology and other work, analyzing the defects and improving the quality. The development prospects of different companies' processes are different, and some mature processes are handyman; Some companies with critical technology have irreplaceable positions and better prospects, which can be developed as a profession.

curriculum of mechanical engineering major
