Engineering is ubiquitous in this modern world, it’s everywhere you look. It ranges from the car you drive, the air conditioning in your home and the computer/cell phone that you’re reading this on. Even the smallest objects have been engineered to a certain degree, and this is what makes the engineering field so broad and diverse.

At the beginning when you are trying to start out, it can be daunting and there may be an overwhelming feeling that there is simply no way a person could ever know enough, or maybe that the content is too difficult. Well from personal experience, we can tell you that we know of people that hate math, but have great analytical engineering minds, and that’s all it is, a mindset. Our belief is that anyone can understand the basics and more of any certain aspect of engineering, once the information is broken down and presented in an easily understood format.

This is why we have formed Mechanical Engineering HQ, in order to help anyone that needs assistance and to create a place where reliable engineering information (specifically mechanical engineering) can be obtained. Engineering doesn’t have to be a monotonous subject. From just a quick web search, it can be seen that the vast majority of engineering sites derive from educational/career-building sources (Not to mention these websites also look like Craiglist’s awkward cousin from the 90’s!).

Educational institutions have a habit of taking you down rabbit holes. And while career-building websites are helpful, they tell you what you need to be doing and where you need to be in your career, they do not aid you in the process of getting where you want to be.

That’s where we come in.

We want to bring mechanical engineering down to an accessible level for someone who doesn’t have the slightest idea of what engineering even means, while also providing valuable content to those either on their way to an engineering degree or in the field already.

We would have loved a one-stop place like this while we were studying, and even now we grow frustrated at the lack of solutions online for professional engineers. This will not obtain your degree for you, nor will it stop your boss from coming at you at work for not solving the latest problem that is holding up your project, but it is a helpful resource to use when seeking assistance.

Let’s help each other on our journey to becoming efficient, effective engineers. We’re glad you’re here!

Best,

Mechanical Engineering HQ
