Mechatronics

starting a mechanical engineering (ME) degree it is important to understand the prerequisites for upper division classes to be successful in your undergraduate career. Calculus and physics are essential to all ME courses, which are taken during your first year of college. Statics, Dynamics, and Matlab coding class are a taste of mechanical engineering courses. 3-D drawing (Solidworks) is an important skill for engineers because that’s how they see designs in real life and how they do analysis on the part or assembly. Thermodynamics is important to understand because most of all ME classes use energy concepts, which makes sense because anything that moves requires energy. Fluid mechanics, strengths of materials, heat transfer, vibrations, mechatronics, component design, and numerical analysis are essential of understand how to become a great mechanical engineer. Senior design is a final project that helps students learn how to engineer a real life problem, it allows students to use all their knowledge they gained throughout college and apply it(MyMajors.com) . To obtain your Engineering degree it can take from 4 years and on, depending on how dedicated and determined you are. Throughout college you may face many challenges, but in despite of them at the end all the struggles you went through will be worth it. As a matter of fact there are tons of schools that offer Engineering programs; Including high ranked schools such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT),…

worked in the oilfield in the past and I find that area of study very interesting. However, having work in the oilfield I have experienced the ups and downs of work and down time this is why I want to complete my mechanical degree first to provide the most options. Next I would like to look at three different jobs within the arena of mechanical engineering. Mechatronics is the mixture of mechanics and electronics engineering. It is an interdisciplinary subdivision of mechanical engineering,…

project focused on intelligent control systems and based their innovations on knowledge about human’s brain. Thanks to this technology being result of work between the Fachhochschule of Münster and the University of Twente, entrepreneurs could use it to improve the functioning of their companies. Besides that Neuro-Fuzzy-Centrum had its contribution in creating 200 jobs place, which survived after finishing the implementation of this project (EC). Also in the previous period 2007-2013 projects…

I went to a college rep visit and the also toured a perspective college. As i do not fulfill the language requirement for california universities I looked into community colleges, out of state universities, and private universities. I then focused on a Johnson and Wales university rep visit and a tour of Sierra Community College. I ultimately chose to go with Sierra. Sierra was originally recommended to me by an engineer at the career fair. It then had a major that I was very interested in,…

Exploring and creating are two thing I love. When I was younger I had craziest ideas I felt like anything was possible, building or good puzzle could keep me occupied for hours. I’m still very much like that child I was back then. There many things I didn’t grow out of like my love of billing and designing. As children my dad read to us Books us a lot I always admired the people that thought differently about the ordinary, said the thing that seems outrages and proved them possible, offer a…

I interviewed Timothy Beatty who is the dad of my friend Jonathan. I chose him because he works in software engineering, but majored in marine biology while minoring in chemistry and computer science engineering. This intrigued me because in high school I took an oceanography class and fell in love with the study, I wanted to major in oceanography and minor in marine biology, but I figured engineering would be more economic. I still love engineering, so it is not something I’m doing just for the…

event, host annual strategy meetings, share our build space and full field practice space with other teams, and host mock competitions. Moreover, we co-host the annual off-season event, the CORI Invitational, to further our relationship with CORI teams. Teach It Forward The Metrobots “Teach It Forward” by encouraging the implementation of robotics and FIRST-based courses into middle and high schools. Our team has developed eight STEAM-based courses, which are now part of the curriculum at Metro…

the requirements is not easy, but may stall a project from completing its designated deadline. In order to accomplish meeting the deadline, engineers often need training to perform such task. Therefore, they begin the training in school and strengthen their practices in projects. Many studies in colleges are showing the advancement of education in sustainability through series of studies. A study at Georgia Tech couple of years back states that engineering students who are more…

shipment, as well as assisted in the design of a mechanism to separate gas from a continuous flowing liquid solution after ultrasonic degassing occurred. In this internship, I’ve had the opportunity to assist in the consultation with Yankee Candle and Sun Chemicals in order to remove dissolved and undissolved gasses in their mixed solutions (wax and paint). I also worked at the K12 STEM Center at NYU, I contributed in the creation of a curriculum and taught middle school children an introduction…

Printable mechatronics: Researchers are “developing processes that adapt ink-jet printing technology to build ready-to-use products, complete with working circuitry, switches and movable parts.” . Memory drugs: These drugs aim to help people with Alzheimer’s and boost healthy people’s memories by enhancing the brain’s neurial connections and functions. . Perpendicular magnetic storage: Today’s hard drives store bits of data horizontally, like stalks of freshly cut corn. PMR stores them…
