Mechanical engineers play a crucial role in various industrial areas. These areas can be listed as follows; automotive (engine, chassis, suspension, gearbox etc.), nuclear and thermoelectric power plants, air and space vehicle design, biotechnology (prosthetic devices, operational robots, medication production systems), energy generation (hydrolic, gas and wind generators, solar power, nuclear energy, fuel cells), construction, agriculture and mining machines, microelectromechanical systems (micro-sensors and actuators, micro-power generation), computer and electronic devices (air conditioner, compressors, pumps), automation (production robots, graphic identification and controls), production (processing, prototype, production tools), and system integrations.
In all these work areas, mechanical engineers can be in charge of many different positions. Research and development engineer, design engineer, test engineer, production engineer, quality control engineer, system analysis engineer, computer modeling and simulation engineer, maintenance engineer sales engineer, and counseling engineer are the positions that a mechanical engineer can occupy as as a skilled engineer or a manager. A brief list of possible employment areas along with some sectors & companies are provided below.
