Mechanical engineering is a broad profession that traditionally comprises three primary sub-fields: energy, mechanisms and machinery, and controls. The work done by mechanical engineers includes the design, construction and use of systems for the conversion of energy available from natural sources (water, fossil fuels, nuclear fuels and solar radiation) to other forms of useful energy. These systems are used for transportation, heat, light, power; design and production of machines to lighten the burden of servile human work and to do work otherwise beyond human capability; processing of materials into useful products; and manufacturing. Mechanical engineers use creative planning, development and operation of systems using energy, machines and resources. A nuclear engineering option is available as an option within the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree program.
