Mechanical Engineering Career
The engineering field I have chosen is Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical engineering is a very broad field; mechanical engineers have the opportunity to work in a wide spectrum of fields. Some mechanical engineers can work for a company testing and improving upon their products. Mechanical engineers love to take things apart and to find out how they work. This being the basis for mechanical engineering it gives a mechanical engineer many options so you won’t ever be bored. Mechanical Engineers rely heavily on Mathematics and Physics. As these are essential in designing and producing a product Mechanical engineers have to be precise in their calculations because working in such industries as Aerospace, Automotive Technology ,Electronics, and product development if they are not you can serious injure or even kill someone. Mechanical Engineers also have to be able to read and interpret technical drawings, schematics, blueprints and computer generated reports. Mechanical Engineers have to study equipment failures to diagnose faulty operation. Other responsibilities vary from company to company. However, in general the field of Mechanics encompasses everything that involves motion.
The top three colleges in the United States according to usnews.com are Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, and University of California Berkeley. MIT has a student faculty ratio of 8:1, an acceptance rate of 9.7%, and tuition of $20,885 per term. Stanford University has a student faculty ration of 6:1, an acceptance rate of 7%, and tuition of $20,025. University of California Berkeley has a student faculty ratio of 17:1, an acceptance rate of 21%, and tuition of $18,039 per term. For an option a little closer to home there is University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. UCCS has a student faculty ratio of 16:1, an acceptance rate of 67%, and tuition of $4,500 per term.

Also, this report will inform on the basic job outlook for mechanical engineers. The report will also inform on top mechanical engineering Universities such as MIT, Stanford, and others. To attend these colleges some sort of financial help such as financial aid or scholarships would be a big help, and this report will inform on some of the choices you have for such financial help. The main purpose of the report is to show you why mechanical engineering is the perfect field for people who like to use their hands and learn how things how to work.
