Mechanical Engineers are men and women who design, develop and manufacture machines that produce, transmit or use power. Wherever machines are produced, or used, there are mechanical engineers. They play a pivotal role in nearly everything that affects out lives.

From a seemingly simple object such as a doorknob, to complex robots and spacecrafts, there is hardly an area of everyday life that hasn't been influenced by a mechanical engineer somewhere along the path from invention to installation.

Central to these mechanical engineers is ASME International, one of the world's largest engineering societies, dedicated to ensuring that mechanical engineers worldwide are on the cutting edge of technology, safety conscious and committed to improving the technical well-being of the world.
