Both mechanical engineering and civil engineering basically deal with mechanics - studies of forces and their effects over a stationary body or a body in motion. Mechanical engineers, as the name suggests, use principles of mechanics as well as thermodynamics to design machines like steam engines, petrol engines, diesel engines, boilers, etc. Whereas a civil engineer uses principles of mechanics as well as the knowledge of properties of materials to design buildings, dams, bridges, harbors, airports etc.
