I was wondering what to post here since i had nothing to comment on.....until this morning....
This post is not meant to criticize other fields of engineering .... it is just meant to highlight the uniqueness of mechanical discipline.
a friend of mine repented for choosing mechanical engineering as his career option. He was comparing IT jobs with mechanical jobs. He was overflowing with complaints about the mechanical field, about the salary it promises to provide, about the working conditions and it went on and on till i could no longer take it up.....
i dedicate this post to that poor fellow out there....
to learn about things that move the world is very fascinating. Engineering serves this purpose of carrying the world forward. When it comes to engineering the immediate word that flashes in our mind is mechanical engineering.
if u ask me what's mechanical engineering ???
i would say it is an art and science of creation.... Art; it needs skill and will. science; because it too has some systematic procedures.creation; we create right from simple tools, which helps u to open crown of a bottle to the most indigenous, complex machines that keep the world rotating...
Even though many engineering disciplines have evolved through years.... still it's graduates are called engineers..... ENGINE-ERS..... meaning a engine driver. This ultimately and inarguably means a mechanical professional. This shows that mechanical engineering is the forerunner and one of the oldest field.
old here does not mean that it's a tradition and it should be followed,it means that though many breath taking technologies have been developed it is the mechanical phenomenon that stand as fundamental concrete base for that technology.
IT sectors are seeing a down slide.... and the market is melting down.... but still a safety pin manufacturing company is carrying on with it's production schedule without stopping it's operation. this is because we serve the fundamental needs of the people.
even though computers can boast of high end technologies.... it needs a rack and pinion mechanism to operate it's CD drive .... that's the power of mechanical engineering.
From needles 2 bridges
From bolts 2 machines
From bearings 2 bicycles
From steering 2 engines
From bikes 2 air crafts
From cd 2 computers v r required
Casting dreamz,
welding ideas,
forging effortz,
shaping the world,
we are the GEARS of progress bcoz v r
THE MEN !
THE MACHINE !!
THE MECHANICAL ENGINEERS !!!

so my friend...
whatever be the technological development that has taken and will take place .... mechanical engineering, as phenomenon will remain as the AXIS of that development. Enjoy the work you are doing.... what ever you do .... do it with commitment.....
live joyfully.
celebrate life.
