Mission: Active EngagementASME, as an incubator of leading-edge thinking on technology and related, relevant topics, aggressively pursues the active engagement of its members – the leading minds in engineering.

This enterprise supports Mechanical Engineering as a unique publication in its field.

Published since 1880 by ASME, Mechanical Engineering identifies emerging technologies and trends and provides a perspective on the role of engineering and technology advances in the world and on our lives.

As the only industry magazine published by ASME and circulated exclusively to engineers worldwide, Mechanical Engineering is recognized as an indispensable resource. It represents engineering’s most effective vehicle for getting the word out to management-level, practicing engineers with purchasing power.

ASME’s RoleFounded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, ASME is a not-for-profit professional membership organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, career enrichment, and skill development across all engineering disciplines.

ASME strategically aligns its programs and initiatives to provide relevant knowledge-based resources to the broad universe of ASME members and constituents.

This worldwide engineering society is responsible for pioneering the development of industry codes, standards, and related accreditation programs. Its publications, conferences, continuing education and professional development programs provide a foundation for advancing technical knowledge and a safer world.

MISSION & VISION

The Magazine of ASMEThe editors of Mechanical Engineering answer to the premier engineering organization in promoting the vital role of the engineer in society.

ASME helps the global community develop solutions to real world challenges by advancing, disseminating and applying engineering knowledge for improving the quality of life.

Issues and events relating to members of ASME and the mechanical engineering profession

EDITORIAL MISSION

Our readers rely on us to keep abreast of the industry’s latest developments in concise, comprehensive, and compelling editorial.

Other publications cover only discrete tech-nologies — product simulation, product data management, enterprise resource manage-ment, and others. Mechanical Engineering provides the big picture that everyone else is missing: how to use these technologies.

We cover the entire field. We appeal to the OEM designers, the R&D professionals, the process engineers, and the people with the purchasing power.

Mechanical Engineering magazine provides a broad interdisciplinary view of the me-chanical engineering profession that vertical magazines miss. More and more of today’s technology-savvy engineers go online to get the discipline-specific information vertical publications offer. But, when they want the whole picture — the big picture — they go to Mechanical Engineering magazine.

We answer to our readers: Hard-driving engi-neering managers who are expected to present a vision of where technology is headed so that investors’ capital can be transformed into in-novative products that fatten the bottom line.

More than any other publication, Mechanical Engineering is the place where this vision takes shape.
