" Even if the science of mechanics precedes technology to an ancient time, when the movement of things was first contemplated upon by an intelligent mind, Mechanical Engineering is, in fact, a twin of technology - born with the birth of the first tool - regardless if it was an axe or a spear, a plow or a dagger.  

   Today, the very essence of Mechanical Engineering remains the same: to practice mastery, in theory and craft, over energy and matter. It is our duty to do it, with a sense of moral responsibility towards the environment and the betterment of our societies. "
