The GATE Mechanical Engineering exam includes various major subjects such as theory of machines, fluid mechanics, machine design, industrial engineering, production engineering, thermodynamics, refrigeration and air conditioning. The subjects studied by aspiring engineers in their undergraduate level will be asked in the GATE.
The Mechanical Engineering is a vary popular branch for which highest number of students appear for GATE Exam and higher studies. It offers numerous career opportunities in public and private sectors. Through GATE Score, candidates can join the highly reputed Public Sector Enterprises like BHEL, SAIL, NTPC, GAIL, NALCO, DRDO, NPCIL, etc.
