Mechanical Engineering  has application in every field of Technology and is considered to be the evergreen trade and the working style of Mechanical Engineers changes depending on the type and domain of the company of they are working with and the need of Mechanical Engineers has raised exponentially over time with the drastic increase in the Industrial Sector and have tremendous scope in automobile engineering , steel , power sector ,  Petroleum , Aeronautical and many more and also find job very easily in public sector industries such as Indian Railways , Indian Army etc. In modern life virtually every product or services has probably been touched in some of the way by a mechanical engineer.

In this article I am going to tell you about Reference books for GATE of Mechanical Engineering.
