Mechanical Engineers can find jobs in any manufacturing industry. If we speak of numbers, mechanical engineers have the largest number of job opportunities after the Information technologists. They can find work in any company producing a mechanical product like cars, elevators, aircraft, machinery needed for various plants, industrial plant components and process equipment, refrigerators, electrical motors, etc. and even in industries producing utilities like electrical power generation. The mechanical engineers can work in various engineering functions like research and design of mechanical products and equipment, manufacturing, industrial process control monitoring, quality control, industrial sales and marketing, and project management. Though the opportunities overall are going through a slump because of global economic recession which has resulted in severe industrial slow down, it will definitely look up, once the industrial slow down is reversed.

Apart from going for a job, after having a bachelor degree in Engineering, one can do a Master degree in a specialized area like Automobile Engineering, Design Engineering, Engineering Automation, Aeronautical Engineering, Applied Mechanics, Manufacturing Science, etc. One can also get a job as a Marine Engineer after going through a training course.
