But before we examine this celebration in detail, let's figure out what this industry is and why it is needed.
Engine of the economy
Mechanical engineering is the basis of the entire industry of any country, its material and economic resource. The vital activity of all mankind is associated with this industry , since each of us is faced, for example, with public or private transport, watches TV or takes products out of the refrigerator. This industry also includes the products on which industry is based. These are machine tools, equipment for the production of goods, products that ensure the country's defense capability, for example, airplanes, satellites, ships, etc. Engineering is the basic sector of the country's economy , the most important industry, the heart of the industry. Therefore, we can safely say that there is no sphere where mechanical engineering products are not used.
The value of mechanical engineering
Engineering Day today is a special date. This industry is very important for humans. Interestingly, it has existed for more than two hundred years. Among all industries all over the world, it ranks first in terms of the cost of products, as well as the number of employees. The level of development of mechanical engineering is used to judge how developed the country as a whole is.
Before considering the number of engineering day, it should be noted that this industry allows you to produce a wide variety of consumer goods, from machinery and equipment to instruments and tools that have industrial purposes. It also makes it possible to produce various products that have cultural and domestic value, and provide technology to all sectors of the economy. This technique is used not only in transport, but also in agriculture, in everyday life, industry. Before considering how the holiday is held, the Day of Mechanical Engineering, it must be said that this industry is a catalyst for scientific and technological progress, on the basis of which the equipment of all spheres of the national economy, as well as troops, is equipped with new, more advanced equipment and weapons. It follows from this that the main task of engineering products is to make labor easier, to increase its productivity by filling all sectors of the national economy with fixed assets with a high technical level.
Types of engineering
Depending on what products are manufactured, mechanical engineering is usually divided into energy, electronic, agricultural, transport, manufacturing of equipment for various industries (instrument-making), machine-tool construction. Thus, scientific and technological progress materializes through all engineering products.
Engineering Day
The date for its celebration was not chosen by chance. The triumph of Soviet times takes its history. Engineering Day was established by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR "On Holidays and Memorials" on October 1, 1980, and also as amended by the UPVS of the USSR "On Amending the Legislation of the USSR on Holidays and Memorials" on November 1, 1988.

Since Engineering Day is celebrated on the last Sunday of September, last year (2015) the holiday hit the twenty-seventh. This year it will be celebrated on September twenty-fifth. The first autumn month is quite warm, so the mood on this holiday for workers in the machine-building industry will certainly be good. Various events dedicated to this holiday can take place at factories and enterprises. Not only employees come to congratulate employees, but also relatives, relatives.
A few words in the end ...
