Employment Resources and Professions Available to Mechanical Engineering Graduates

Employment opportunities for mechanical engineers can be found in all aspects of industry. This includes the traditional fields of aerospace, energy, manufacturing, and transportation. But they are also employed in diverse fields such as agriculture, mining, pharmaceuticals, waste management, and road transport, and defense. They work to design, maintain, and troubleshoot new products and systems, and frequently work in engineering teams with other engineers.

Mechanical engineers can also go into research, usually in academia. They teach mechanical engineering and also work in collaboration with manufacturing engineers and private industry to design products. They can specialize in biomechanics, computer systems, robotics, or aerospace.

A degree in mechanical engineers is also useful as a stepping-stone for more advanced education in law, business, or medicine, where their analytical training is useful for a successful career in these other fields. A mechanical engineering degree can also be used to acquire the professional engineering (P.Eng) designation, which is necessary where they will be aiding in the manufacturing of products, and need to be legally responsible for their design and documentation.
