Hello,
Marine engineering is a specialized mechical field. Just like aeronautical or automibile engineering, marine is just a specialized trade.
A marine engineer can call himself a mechanical engineer but vice versa is not possible.
Marine engineering is the field of study that deals with design, development, production and maintenance of the equipment used at sea and boat, ships etc. Whereas
Mechanical engineering is the application of the principles and probably solving techniques of engineering from design to manufacturing to the marketplace for any object.
Hope this helps you!!!
