Research, design, develop, manufacture, and test tools, engines, machines, and other mechanical devices
It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design, production, and operation of machines and tools.
It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.
Mechanical engineering applies the principles of physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems.

College of Engineering: Mechanical EngineeringStudents learn to create and build machines, devices, and systems that perform useful services.
Mechanical engineers are typically involved with such activities as:
generation, distribution, and use of energydevelopment and application of manufacturing systems and processes
automation and control of mechanical and thermal systems
design of various products for consumer and commercial markets

Mechanical engineers held about 239,000 jobs in 2008, second only to civil engineers
6% job growth over the next 8-10 years, which is slower than the average for all occupations
Emerging new areas of growth for mechanical engineers include biotechnology, nanotechnology and materials science.
M.E.s are in demand because a ME degree can be used as a springboard into virtually any other branch of engineering
The median income of a ME is $74,900.

• Civil engineering is one of the oldest disciplines of engineering contains a variety of specialties like structural, water related, environmental,
architectural, transportation and geo-technical engineering
Administrative or supervisory jobs are held by many civil engineers while others work in devising, composing, constructing, researching and teaching jobs.
Civil engineers usually work near major industrial and commercial centers, often at construction sites.
Some projects are situated in remote areas or in foreign countries. In some jobs, civil engineers move from place to place to work on different projects.

Industrial Engineers determine the best way to build a better mouse trap and market that mouse trap once it is built.
They find ways that are better, faster, smarter, easier and safer so their company makes a good profit, are efficient and safer.
They find ways to help keep employees satisfied and safe with their work.
The next time you wait in a long line for that roller coaster ride or to get processed for Access Plus Payroll Deposit you can blame the industrial engineer for not doing their job! http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/science-engineering-careers/MatlSci_industrialengineer_c001.shtml

EMPLOYMENT In 2008 engineers held 1.6 million jobs, with industrial
engineers holding 214,800 of those jobs 3rd highest Engineers are employed in every state, in small and
large cities and in rural areas. Industrial engineers are expected to have
employment growth of 14 percent over the projections decade, faster than average for all occupations.
It’s expected that firms will turn to industrial engineers to develop more efficient processes and reduce costs, delays, and waste.

Materials science is an interdisciplinary field involving the properties of matter and its applications to various areas of science and engineering. This science investigates the relationship between the structure of materials at atomic or molecular scales and their macroscopic properties. Nanoscience or nanotechnology has propelled materials science to the forefront of exploration by many universities as of late.
