Mechanical engineering is the subfield of engineering concerned with the creation, maintenance, and use of mechanical systems and components.

Composites, mechatronics, and nanotechnology all fall under the purview of mechanical engineers, and there is considerable cross-pollination between mechanical engineering and the other engineering disciplines of manufacturing, metallurgical, civil, aerospace, electrical, chemical, and industrial engineering, to name a few.
