"Mechanical engineering opens up opportunities to work on cutting-edge and important products and technologies in a wide variety of fields. This makes the career very versatile and interesting. You get the opportunity to be creative and solve complex problems with some very smart people. You will always be learning. One downside is that sometimes you will have many simultaneous projects and tight deadlines that are constantly being re-prioritized. Ultimately, however, it is very rewarding."
