I am in the same exact position as you (Master's in mechanical engineering). Some people have the opinion that having a Master's degree in engineering makes you over qualified for certain jobs. I am curious, are you finding that your Master's degree in mechanical engineering is giving you an...

It's all depending on your province/state professional engineers academic requirements. Information regarding the academic requirements for Ontario are avaialable on the Profession Engineers Ontario website. If you do not have an undergraduate degree in engineering, the PEO will assess your...

If you complete your undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, you will be able to apply for a Master's in Mechanical Engineering. However, you will have a little catch up to do when you enter the program. There will be a slight learning curve, but I don't think it will limit your ability...

Hello, I am about to start my Master's in Mechanical Engineering. My specialized field of study will be in alternative energy. I completed my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering at the same university. I decided to stay at the same university due to the funding opportunities and...

All depends on the job. I also have research experience on my resume. I listed it in the jobs section followed by a description of the details of the job. You may also want to consider it a project if you were leading the research and your professor was simply watching you. What you have now...

Mechanical engineering is a very general type of engineering that allows one to specialize in multiple areas (materials, electrical, heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluids, design, etc.) I just graduated from mechanical engineering and I loved my program. I am the type of student that enjoys...

You require a bachelors degree in engineering from an accredited univerity to become a professional engineer. There are also some other requirements such as 48 months of professional experience (Ontario) and you must write an examination. Hope this helps.

I would agree with the previous post saying that controls has a significant demand right now. A masters in control engineering can usually be applied to a large number of industries. I recent colleague of mine just graduated with a master's in control engineering specializing in vibration...

Whenever your dealing with fluid mechanics you will be dealing with energy balance equations, bernoilli's principle and equation, static analysis, and some simple fluid dynamic analysis. Introduction to Thermodynamics courses usually cover some fluid mechanics principles. Heat transfer courses...
