1- What is management engineering? Is it an engineering branch, is it a profession, or what? 2- Define your duties as a management engineer? Whyshould Corporation need a management engineer? What is it you offer for the Corporation? 3- Mehmet is a manufacturing engineer at a bicycle company. Part of his job is to inspect broken bikes and draw up design plans for their repairs. One day, Mehmet gets instructions from his supervisor to fix a bike with brake cables off. When Mehmet inspects the bike, he notíces that the cables are broken because they are made of low-quality material, He suspects that this bike is specialy designed and that the customer does not know which materials will be most suitable for brake cables. That's why Mehmet decides to use a more durable material for cables when preparing design plans for the repair of the bike. When Mehmet goes to fix the bike, he learns that the customer specifically wants the bike to be repaired, but that no aesthetic changes should be…
