Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering can be defined as the technology and science designing, constructing, implementing, and maintaining hardware and software components of contemporary computing systems and equipment that are operated, and monitored through a computer.
The secret in education lies in respecting students. The great difficulty in education is to get experience out of ideas. You cannot teach a person anything, you can only help him find it within himself.
