As a Mechanical Engineer, you would be designing the moving parts of mechanical machines – machines like engines, rockets, robots, and industrial machinery! Usually working in some kind of research and development role, you would be analyzing problems to see how a mechanical device could help solve the problem, designing the device itself and creating technical drawings so it can be manufactured, testing prototypes, and making sure the product is manufactured correctly. In your day to day life, you would spend most of your time using computer software to design the machines and test the physics of them in a virtual environment. You would also spend a lot of time solving problems both for your customers, and when issues arise in the manufacturing process.
