Already in my mind I envision designing, and to have produced a unique design of boat. I know right now from the get go, that my design is going to be simple, inexpensive, but I am going to give it that which will make it special. I will give it certain features that will make it very...

I've seen a little bit about the gravity light. I think it works in a simple way, a weight at a certain height has gravitational potential energy depending on how far the weight will fall, this quantity represents the total energy we have at our disposal to power a light. Now we normally think...

Hello, I'd like to know about the master's in mechanical engineering, what exactly sets it apart from the bachelor's? What makes it a more advanced level? Is it that students are instructed in more complex, sophisticated math, physics, engineering techniques? How many years in addition to the...

Another thing I am concerned about is if these universities, few in number as it is, are hard to get into. What makes universities say, "no we don't want him."? Or am I wrong, and anyone can prove to the administration that they have the capacity to successfully complete his/her selected...

Thank you for so many replies and advice, but there are no marine engineering, or naval architecture universities in the state where I live, Florida. I think universities, in general, have affordable lodging programs for students who don't live nearby, am I correct?

Is the curriculum for mechanical engineering, all engineering fields for that matter standardized, is it the same in all colleges?

I have no experience diving, but I will learn. I thought about how the ocean is so full of things to see, it has so much imagination, especially the incredible variety of creatures, and also undersea structures which are worth seeing. Experiencing this completely different environment is like...

I am curious, is mechanical engineering really the way to go? What about marine engineering, or naval architecture?

I am inspired to design civilian submarines for underwater tourism. I want to design a low-cost submarine that will increase accessibility of the underwater world to people who don't have too much money. I think that new materials are needed that will be cheaper but still serve their function...
