Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineers are part of your every day life, Designing the spoon you used to eat breakfast, Your breakfast’s packaging, The chair you’re sitting on, Even your PEN. VIRTUALLY EVERY OBJECT YOU SEE AROUND YOU HAS PASSED THROUGH THE HANDS OF A MECHANICAL ENGINEER!
Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineering is the most applicable form of engineering because you can work in any industry.
Mechanical Engineers are Creative Analytic and Mathematical
Famous Mechanical Engineers 1.
Ayodele Awojobi
Ayodele Awojobi was gifted in mathematics and the sciences, and also developed a particular interest in the arts, becoming a member of the school's literary and debating society
He researched further with motor engines and was able to re-design a vehicle so that it was able to move in both forward and backward directions with all four preexisting gears. This gave the hybrid vehicle, which he named ‘Autonov 1’, the ability to achieve its highest speeds in a moment, in the normal reverse direction
Famous Mechanical Engineers 2. Henry Ford ( Founder of Ford Motor Company)
In 1901, C. Harold Wills supported Ford to design and built a 26-horsepower automobile. With the ultra success of this automobile, Murphy and other stockholders in the Detroit Automobile Company came together to form the Henry Ford Company on November 30, 1901.
Famous Mechanical Engineers 3. James Watt
He learned writing, arithmetic and geometry in his childhood along with the craft of instrument making, which he later pursued as a career to achieve great heights.
Famous Mechanical Engineers 4. Nikola Tesla
He was a child prodigy and possessed an eidetic memory with a futuristic vision for the mankind which is evident from most of his discoveries and researches
