Hi,
Mechanical Engineers focus on the design and analysis of mechanical systems.
Manufacturing Engineers focus on applying engineering principles to the development and implementation of manufacturing processes.
There is a lot of overlap in the two disciplines. The Manufacturing Engineer will need to learn a lot more about automated processes and electronics than a Mechanical Engineer. The Mechanical Engineer with learn a lot more about thermodynamics and the specific requirements for analyzing mechanisms.
