Top 10 Reasons to Consider a Career in Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers are everywhere; you can see them in IT companies, the robotics industry, the healthcare industry, the aerospace industry, and even the marine industry. The reason is quite simple – mechanical engineers are very good at how stuff works, and they know complex systems from inside out. Thus, HR professionals, hiring agencies, and recruiters are always looking for such candidates who are good with problem-solving and analytical skills and mechanical engineers are a great match for their requirements. Mechanical engineers have an ultra-bright career and they are welcome everywhere.

The mechanical engineers are highly revered in society because they make systems and machines for the general public and industries which in turn, makes all our lives easier. After completing your bachelor’s degree, you can go for higher education and apply for a master’s in nuclear engineering, master’s in mechanical engineering, master’s in aerospace engineering, MS in automobile engineering, and more.

Mechanical engineers can travel anywhere including areas like – deserts, deep sea, swampland, The Antarctic power, and automobile industry, as well as oil rigs. The mechanical engineers also earn well when they have experience in the industry. A few industries that pay well to mechanical engineers are – healthcare industry, nuclear industry, aerospace industry, and automobile industry.

Now, let us see the top 10 benefits of having a degree in mechanical engineering

1. Travel anywhere: As mentioned earlier, a mechanical engineer has the potential to travel anywhere in the world. They can be seen in concrete jungles and outskirts, they are present in oilrigs, deserts, swamplands, remote continents, and deep seas and forests like Amazon.
2. Respected everywhere: Mechanical engineers are making this world better by developing and producing systems for mass consumption. Did you know it’s the mechanical engineers who are responsible for making air conditioning systems, refrigerators, gas turbines, and even space shuttles? Apart from these, they also develop a nuclear reactor’s fuel rods, control rods, and electric generators.
3. Good salary: Mechanical engineers earn a handsome package. Initially, at freshers’ level, the salary isn’t that good but as you gain experience your package and CTC will increase exponentially and not logarithmically.
4. A multitude of options in higher studies: Other engineering domains have only a few options for you to apply for higher studies but in mechanical engineering the opportunities are vast. Some of the most interesting and best choices for higher studies in mechanical engineering are – masters in acoustical engineering, MS in manufacturing engineering, master’s in marine engineering, masters in mechatronics, and etc.
5. Multi-skilled persona: Mechanical engineers are multi-skilled and extremely proficient at multitasking. They are the jack of all trades! They are very good at – electricity, complex machines, structures, physics, mathematics, and computer applications.
6. Never-ending demand: The demand for mechanical engineers is always on a high rise and has never seen a downfall since the early 1800s. This has been made possible because mechanical engineering is very good at what they do; especially with machines and intricate systems.
7. Global opportunities: When you have a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, you can go abroad and study master’s or MS there. Also, after a master’s degree, you can visit different countries as per your job role. Many a lot travel to Germany, Italy, France, and other European countries for work and pleasure.
8. Technology vanguards: Mechanical engineers spearhead several projects and come up with ideas that are revolutionary. Models of concept cars, smartphones, buildings, and robots are developed and executed by the very best of mechanical engineers.
9. Always stay up to date: Mechanical engineers always stay ahead of the curve by keeping themselves up to date. They know almost everything about the latest technologies and platforms. They don’t have FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and they never stop learning new skills.
10. Stay away from recession woes: Some people inside corporate companies always fret because they know that their job isn’t recession-proof. But this scenario is totally absent for mechanical engineers. The mechanical engineers know that they can fend for themselves and thanks to the increasing population and the desire for living luxurious lives, mechanical engineers will never go out of fashion.

So, these are the top 10 reasons to consider a career in mechanical engineering. Mechanical engineers are hardworking, but they also enjoy lavishing life once they have the desired experience in a particular niche. If you don’t have any interest in any of the above, you don’t have to worry at all. You can join a college, university or a private institution and start teaching. Even training professionals and faculty members in colleges earn well and are able to live happily anywhere in this world.
