What is it like to be a Mechanical Engineer?
Mechanical engineering is one of the most dynamic and exciting engineering disciplines. Mechanical engineering covers the design and analysis of all kinds of systems and technologies with mechanical components, with applications in energy production, robotics, environmental systems, materials, composites, transportation, manufacturing, machine design, and many more areas. The SDSU Department of Mechanical Engineering provides a broad based education that has been developed to prepare the student for a wide range of careers and new technologies. One important fact, that surprises many people, is that students get engineering degrees not only to practice careers in engineering, but also as preliminary training for many other fields or graduate work in engineering, law, medicine, and business. ME graduates can work in all of these areas. The world has become increasingly technological, and if you want to be able to make a difference in almost any area, you will have to be able to use tech
