Well, I have been one for 40 years and I also suck at drafting and sketches. But it does help to learn to read drawings. Also, to have a passion for engineering principles.

Do what you like and like what you do.

Who was our country's first known engineer?

It would depend on what your country is. Though 'engineer' covers a very wide range of professions, no matter what country you mean it is unlikely that there will be an official recognition.


How to become a engineer?

Requirements to become an engineer vary in each country. In the United States, ABET (Accreditation Board of Engineering Technology)is a non profit organization that accredits United States postsecondary degree programs in applied science, computing, engineering, and technology to qualify universities for their degrees. To meet ABETs requirements, students need to fulfill the determined class work qualifying the graduate title of engineer. These classes are prominently heavy in physics, math, chemistry, biology. Once the student enters his junior year, he/she will declare a specific degree (electrical, mechanical, etc) which will focus specific classes pertaining to that field of study. Many companies will not consider degrees if their university was not ABET accredited. To provide engineering to the public (construction, power grid, etc) some countries require a Professional Engineering license in which the graduate will have to sit first for the EIT (Engineering In Training) exam and then, 3 years later, can sit for the PE (Professional Engineer) exam. In the US, there is no restriction who can claim the title of engineer, i.e. train engineer, maintenence engineer, Information Technology Engineer regardless of the above education. Though in Canada, it is illegal to claim title of engineer without their accrediation of education.


What are all the ME courses in electronics and communication engg?

Mechanical engineering is a completely different discipline to electronic or communication engineering. Though some aspects of mechanical engineering will be required in both at some time they will be tailored to fit the course you are taking.


How do you become an Mechanical engineer?

You need a four year BS degree at major universities and a good interview during this or following. Working as a paid or unpaid intern while in college can make the job hunting easier. After you receive your degree, some states require you to work with a professional engineer for a period of time before you are allowed to take your state's PE exam. For example: In California you must work under a PE for 2 years before being allowed to take the PE exam, but in Nevada it's 4 years.


Is Engineer is consider professional as doctor?

Assuming you mean "Is an engineer considered as professional as a doctor?", then yes. This would only apply to actual engineers though; there are a lot of people who call themselves engineers when really they're technicians, draftsmen etc. It would be like a nurse calling themself a doctor.

What is cadopia?

Cadopia is a play on words combining CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) with utopia (an ideally perfect place).The following is taken from Cadopia's website (as they describe themselves):"CADopia develops and distributes IntelliCAD ™ and related Computer-Aided- Design (CAD) and multimedia products around the globe. CADopia(Based on IntelliCAD Technology) is a powerful Computer-Aided-Design software for engineers, architects, designers and drafters -- virtually anyone who creates, edits, or views professional drawing."Computer Aided Drafting is the term generally used to define software that allows the user to create what most people think of when they hear the word 'blueprints' on a computer. CAD isn't limited to houses though, it can be used for mechanical, civil, architectural, and a variety of other drafting applications...
