Famous Mechanical Engineers1. Ayodele Awojobi
Ayodele Awojobi was gifted in mathematics and the
sciences, and also developed a particular interest in
the arts, becoming a member of the school's literary
and debating society
He researched further with motor engines and was able to
re-design a vehicle so
that it was able to move in both forward and backward directions
with all four pre-
existing gears. This gave the hybrid vehicle, which he named
Autonov 1, the ability to achieve its highest speeds in a moment,
in the normal reverse direction
-
Famous Mechanical Engineers2. Henry Ford ( Founder of Ford Motor
Company)
In 1901, C. Harold Wills supported Ford to design
and built a 26-horsepower automobile. With the
ultra success of this automobile, Murphy and
other stockholders in the Detroit Automobile
Company came together to form the Henry Ford Company on November
30, 1901.

Famous Mechanical Engineers3. James Watt
He learned writing, arithmetic and geometry in his
childhood along with the craft of instrument making,
which he later pursued as a career to achieve great
heights.
-
Famous Mechanical Engineers4. Nikola Tesla
He was a child prodigy and possessed an eidetic memory
with a futuristic vision for the mankind which is evident
from most of his discoveries and researches
