Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest engineering branch that is also the broadest one as it binds both engineering physics and mathematics principles together with materials science. With this specialization the mechanical engineers can design, study and analyze, produce, and maintain mechanical systems.

Talking about Future Scope.
The scope of career advancement of mechanical engineers in India is upgrading every year. And in abroad, the growth factors are spectacular. A skilled mechanical engineers is the need of the hour for every oil exploration, railway, research, aerospace, automobile, chemical manufacturing, and development company. Now there are trends that only software engineers are needed due to the massive influx of technology. But a mechanical engineers expertise is as important as that of a software engineer. A mechanical engineer is imperative in robotics, biomedical, nanotechnology, AI, energy conservation, and more technologies that are emerging round the globe. So i hope the scope of the stream is clear to you. You can definitely go for the branch if you find it exciting.
Hope that helps.

Hi.

Mechanical engineering is the branch of engineering which deals with the design, manufacturing, maintenance and testing of machines. It is also considered as one of the most diverse and versatile disciplines of engineering. Mechanical engineering also includes the application of mechanics, material science, applied mathematics and physics.

Mechanical engineering is also a parent branch for aerospace engineering, production and industrial engineering as well. Which means that those job profiles are usually open for mechanical engineers as well. However, being a hands-on engineering field, it is crucial that you take special care of the college/university you wish to pursue it from and if they have a good program for mechanical courses and its labs.

SCOPE:

The scope of mechanical engineering no longer remains limited to just manufacturing and testing of huge machinery and equipment. Several future domains include robotics, new materials, nanotechnology, computer-aided design, geomechanics, etc. You can work in industries such as:

1. Aerospace industry

2. Automotive industries

3. Defense

4. Rail industry

5. Thermal plants

Good Luck
