Mechanical Engineering Jobs, Introduction, Subjects, Career, Core Topics, Scope, Required Abilities & Definition Â
After industrial revolution our world has become a mechanical world. We live in are living a world of high tech and smart machines. Mechanical Engineering is all about machines. We study about design, production, maintenance and operation of machinery in this branch of engineering. It is one of the most interesting branch of engineering which has great scope too not only in Pakistan but also abroad. A person with creative mind and analytical skills should go for BE in Mechanical Engineering.
You will have to get understanding of main concepts of mechanics, kinematics, Industrial equipment, thermodynamics, materials science, Aerospace, structural analysis, Nanotechnology, Materials and electricity
