RRJ#1

Reference:

CJJ Staff (2007, March 18). CAREER SNAPSHOT: Mechanical Engineering. California Job Journal


Summary:

According to Bureau Of Labor Statistics, mechanical engineering is projected to increase from 9 to 17 percent through 2014. And the employment in manufacturing is declining. Also the article mentioned the mechanical engineering job duties, which are research, develop, design, manufacture, and test tools and other mechanical devices. Then, the article mentioned what a successful engineer is. They are creative, analytical, and detail orented. Also, the article talked about the job requirements, which is a bachilor degree in mechanical engineering. And,the article talked about the working conditiones; the article said that most engineers work in office buildings, laboratories or industrial plants, but others spend time out door at construction sites.

Reaction:

The article showed what the engineers need to know about their major. The article mentioned the most important information that they need, which are: job duties, job requirement, job market updates, working condition, and where the jobs are. And, for me I learned many things. The first thing is the the increasing or engineering employment. The second thing is what my duties are as a mechanical enngineer. The last thing is where my job is.
