Hi Guys, there is general opinion among Mechanical engineers who wants to become Design Engineers think that its enough to learn CAD/FEA software's that's it they are onboard to design products. Infact Design Engineering is not about creating graphical appearance of product.
Its something more than that, you need to understand the functionality of the out product, customer requirement, keep in mind about aesthetics and above all that Engineering has to go into it. This where your Engineering knowledge comes into play,the engineering whatever you studied at the college needs to be used here depending which platform you are working in like Structural,Fluid Mechanics,Thermal Engineering or Machine Design.
This is the Basic funda one has to understand if you have dream about Design Engineering. I don't want to bore you anymore(Hopefully I am not) Just Would like to tell you about Design Engineering Basics e-book.
