Best skills for a mechanical engineer

Posted on January 29, 2017

Mechanical engineering career. Best skills for mechanical engineer

Hello my dear friends, here we shall discuss about mechanical engineering careers and jobs in the future.

well, you already know that mechanical engineers are one of the godfathers of engineering because it shares all engineering knowledge from electrical engineering, Material science, structure, programming, etc.

But the sad truth is, recently there is a lot of unemployed students after engineering. who every day has to go to company doors and ask for a job. It’s really alarming situation for all mechanical engineers. Even if you got a decent-paying job, still there will be a lack of opportunities in the future as companies already have many optional peoples out there. who wants a job in mechanical engineering.

To get a high-paying job as a mechanical engineer, these tips can follow to get a job or get promotions by handling various roles in organizations as pro engineers do.

Here are the tips to become a successful mechanical engineer.
 Learn major mechanical engineering tools and software


Best skills for mechanical engineer


1) Drawing software for mechanical engineering students

There are three categories of software.

2D and 3D CAD drawing software for mechanical engineering

A)  2D drawings for mechanical engineer

AutoCAD 
 AutoCAD is the most widely used software in the field of mechanical engineering. If you are a mechanical engineer you must be a master in this 2D design drawing and drafting. It’s not all about drawing on paper with our hands, this is what we all learn in academics. but in real practice need to deal with Computer aided drawings.

B) 3D modeling for mechanical engineer

Can learn one software in the 3D modeling category, as all software is almost the same, so to handle another one will be just a piece of cake if you are already a master in one 3D modeling software like pro E.

i) Pro E or CREO

Pro E (pro Engineer)or also known as CREO is the best in class design software for solid modeling. It’s easy-to-learn software for you. Look, my friend, if you want to get a job for which mechanical engineers are known. for example designing department or R&D, where you can show your imagination skill and material science knowledge to develop a part by using 3D drawing concepts. in this case, Pro E is a good software to lean

ii) CATIA

CATIA is very popular in solid surfacing and modeling from automobile to spacecraft design. CATIA is made by Dassault corporation which is one of the pioneers in designing fighter jets for the defense industry. To learn CATIA is simple if you already master Pro E.

iii) SOLIDWORKS

Solidworks is similar to the above two designing software, solidworks is easy for new learners. this software is very important for you if your work is to deal with part design and manufacturing on a CNC machine (Computer numerical control).


2) SIMULATION software

After designing the part in drawing software, it’s time to test that part in simulation software. to test that part in different conditions and loads.

i) ANSYS

Ansys is a very popular simulation software for testing the designed part. ANSYS has really vast syllabus. If you just want to master ANSYS, there is a lot to learn. I can assure you if you are a master in ANSYS there are very high-paying jobs waiting for you.

If you master all this software, surely you could be the best mechanical engineer.
