 What do mechanical engineers do?     
 The basic engineering process             
The word “engineering” derives from the Latin root 
ingeniere, meaning to design or to devise, which also 
forms the basis of the word “ingenious.” Those meanings 
are quite appropriate summaries of the traits of a good  engineer. 
At the most fundamental level, engineers apply their 
What is knowledge of mathematics, science, and materialswell as their skills 
in communications and business—to —as engineering? develop new and  better technologies. 
Engineering is the profession in which knowledge of the 
mathematical and natural sciences gained by study, 
experience, and practice is applied with judgement to 
develop ways to utilize, economically, the materials and 
forces of nature for the benefit of mankind.              What Engineers  Do ?   Build a Bridge?   Make a Robot?   Work on a Computer?   Drive a Train?   Repair Car Engines?          ENGINEERS          United  States  Department  of Labor.
