How to Achieve Success in Mechanical Engineering

What skills do you need to develop success in the course?
The skills that are needed to achieve success and ones that are developed over time throughout the course are: team leader, being able to agree on a work plan and create structure within a team in order to achieve a successful outcome. Time management is also key, in order to ensure that all projects are delivered effectively and efficiently and finally communication skills are required and developed throughout the course to ensure that success is showcased and presented.

Turning projects into bigger achievements
During the course, I was fortunate enough to team up with my peers to create a racecar under the competition ‘Formula Student’. Mechanical engineering is very diverse in terms of the opportunities that are available, automotive was something I took a particular interest in. For this project, it was really important to be creative, innovative and ambitious. In addition to taking the time within the team to do technical research outside of class to ensure that there is a full dedication to the project.

Tips for keeping up in class
I have a routine to ensure that I am always on top of my work, this includes, writing notes in class in case I forget any important detail, making sure I revise over key theories and topics at home, using logic to create solutions to various problems in mechanical engineering and finally working closely with professors who share their expertise.

hi my name is Saadeddine El Nakib and
I’m a fourth year mechanical engineering
student at here at what University for
more educational videos please subscribe
and comment below the skills that are
required in order to achieve success and
the ones that are developed throughout
the course over time our team leadership
working out a plan and organizing with
your team the team members are is very
crucial to achieve successful outcome
creating a structure within your teams
as as well time management is also a
crucial skill in order to effectively
and efficiently produce your project in
a timely manner in addition to that
communication is also a crucial part as
you showcase your projects in a
attractive and persuasive manner joining
the first year I was able to build a
hill electric tricycle but there was a
limit to that and in order to achieve a
bigger project you need a proper team
and through my ambition I was able to
find other team members that are also
ambitious to that one person an
individual cannot really succeed in
building a very large project that way
you have a team management skills coming
in handy creating a bigger team means
creating a bigger project in addition to
that having a large team means having a
lot more experience which expands your
horizon that way you’ll have more
connection and professors are there to
help you so please do go and visit them
when you have that connection and
expertise around the world you get to
experience a much wider outside-the-box
thinking you will be able to at no time
make your small project your individual
project build it from electrical
tricycle or electrical vertical to a
formula electric vehicle to compete in
other competitions locally or abroad
it’s a bit of a cliche but writing notes
is very crucial during the class as well
as paying attention to the professor or
the doctor usually our mind go off track
but always take notes
if you have any questions as well don’t
hesitate doctors are there for you and
for your learning aside from the lack of
the class you have to attend multiple
tutorial lectures in order to test your
examples and solution capabilities after
you go home you have to exit write
examples and answer them you’re making
writing your own examples will also
enable you to think as a professor as
someone who’s writing the exams on so on
further professors are also your best
friends so if you have any questions
aside from the class you can go ahead
and book an appointment with your
professors and ask them that question
personally to summarize everything I
have said team leadership time
management communication skills are very
crucial as well as you’re ambitious and
communication with your team members in
order to build further projects bigger
ones and as well to write notes and keep
up with your professors and keep on
writing solutions and examples thank you
