We have another article to highlight as part of our April issue! This work is titled "Engineering culture under stress: A comparative case study of undergraduate mechanical engineering student experiences" and is authored by Drs. Jessica R. Deters, Jon A. Leydens, Jennifer Case, and Margaret Cowell. The authors were interested in how the COVID-19 pandemic changed how mechanical engineering cultural perspectives emerged in students.

Decipher ASME Author Registration Policy Reading Pania Newell's recent post on ASME student registration, https://lnkd.in/gAjKSY3F, I realized that some colleagues might have some confusion about author registration policy. I completely understand the complaints and I don't like this policy either. I know that ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers) is working more better policies so that students can feel more welcomed. However, not all students are required to register as student authors. All the policy requires is that each paper is covered by one author registration and one author registration cannot cover more than two technical presentations plus two posters. I will use IMECE 2024 for illustration. If the professor has two papers/presentations co-authored with students, the professor can register before 8/20 as an author at $940, and all the student authors can register later at $350. The students can still present the work as student authors. It is perfectly allowed by the policy. However, if the professor has three papers/technical presentations co-authored with students, then in addition to the professor's registration, at least one student should register as a student author ($940). Other students can register later at student rate. All students can present their work as student authors. Feel free to leave your comments. I can help pass to ASME for their consideration to improve their registration policies toward students.

How To Become A Mechanical Engineer Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Mechanical Engineers play a critical role in designing and creating everything from nanotechnology to society's most significant structures, such as homes, vehicles, and space stations.  Continue Reading

🔥⚙🧊 Mechanical engineering is a branch of knowledge that uses principles of physics with mathematical tools to solve problems in the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. From the creation of components to large equipment and industrial processes, it drives technological innovation, improves process efficiency, and transforms ideas into reality. 🔧 The Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina has an excellent Mechanical Engineering department, EMC UFSC, internationally recognized for its expertise. It has many highly qualified professors and a robust curriculum for training engineers. When I joined this course in 2015, the curriculum was slightly different from what it is today, but it still follows the same idea. This structure (which I only separated by colors and rearranged, but is proposed by the department itself in the curriculum) can help new students make decisions about which areas to pursue and which subjects to focus on, as well as clarify these divisions for colleagues who have already completed the course. Moreover, I took the liberty of allocating the postgraduate areas offered by department in parallel. 🔩 In the future, I intend to address each subject, discussing projects carried out and their importance in the training of a mechanical engineer. I hope you enjoy it 😀 Alumni EMC UFSC #MechanicalEngineering #UFSC #Engineering #Education #Innovation #Technology

Just passed the Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering Exam!

2023 Uni subject Recap. Engineering: EGB121 - Engineering Mechanics EGB120 - Foundations of Electrical Engineering MZB127 - Engineering Mathematics and Statistics Business: BSB105 - The Future Enterprise BSB108 - Business Environment EFB228 - Microeconomics As I reflect on my academic year, one undeniable truth stands out prominently—I need to improve my time management skills. This realisation has been both enlightening and challenging, as it compels me to confront my habits and make intentional changes to enhance my overall productivity and well-being. Often, I find myself succumbing to procrastination, allowing tasks to pile up until they become overwhelming. In response to this, I am committed to developing a comprehensive and realistic schedule. This involves breaking down larger tasks into manageable chunks and assigning specific time slots to each. By setting clear goals and deadlines, I hope to create a more structured and purposeful routine. I have posted in my projects section of units that stuck out to me and made my time studying abit more enjoyable:)

I see a lot of posts on LinkedIn on wonderful R&D initiatives to improve ships and shipping (which truly is wonderful of course). But what is not so often seen / mentioned on LinkedIn is how much work it is to provide good education to all students that want to develop into highly trained maritime professionals who can actually turn those wonderful initiatives into reality... Well then, see here the pile of exams that I gathered in the four courses (two at BSc level, two at MSc level) that I was responsible for this academic year at TU Delft | Mechanical Engineering. The last exam was this afternoon. The water bottle in the picture is only there to have an idea of the height of the pile (roughly 20 cm). And in fact, the reports and digital exams of 'WVA1' are not even present in this pile, nor are the assignments of the different courses or the BSc / MSc theses that I assessed in the last year. The pile in fact "only" contains the exams of 'WVA2', '(F)MPS' and 'ICE B'...! There can be no doubt that I would not have been able to assess all this work would I not have had the support of many of my fantastic colleagues. Before I leave for the summer holiday with my family, I would like to thank those colleagues for their support!🙏👏 (you'll know yourself if the thank you applies to you 😉). I'd also like to thank the students who took these exams (even though grading was a b*tch). I know all too well that it took a lot of effort from you to prepare for and make the exams. My exams always require a lot of hard work; that's intentional. Nonetheless, the vast majority of you performed very well on the exams! I can only hope that you indeed feel like you have learned some "useful stuff" from all the studying and exam making. 👊 I wish everyone a nice summer holiday and look forward to seeing you again next academic year. It's going to be epic. 😂
