what are the basic informations to be excellent stationary engineer in mechanical field?

A MECHANICAL ENGINEER SHOULD ALWAYS KNOW THESE THESE FOLLOWING BASICS: NEWTONS LAWS OF MOTIONTHERMODYNAMICS LAWS STRESS STRIAN DIAGRAM (YOUNG's MODULUS)BENDING MOMENT DIAGRAM PRINCIPLE OF SUSPENSION BRIDGESOFTWARES LIKE:PRO-E AUTOCADAND A LITTLE ELECTRONICS AND A LITTLE MANAGEMENT.

In almost any accredited Mechanical Engineering program, the following courses are required:    

• Basic sciences - math, chemistry, physics.

• Breadth or distribution (called “General Education” at USC).

• Computer graphics and computer aided design.

• Experimental engineering & instrumentation.

• Mechanical design - nuts, bolts, gears, welds.

• Computational methods - converting continuous mathematical equations into discrete.

--equations for example :

# Core “engineering science”.

# Dynamics – essentially F = ma applied to many types of systems.

# Strength and properties of materials.

# Fluid mechanics.

# Thermodynamics.

# Heat transfer.

# Control systems.

# Senior “capstone” design project.
