Abstract

The current theme of "MECHANICAL ENGINEERING IN MARANHÃO STATE: trends and prospects" was developed in the light of the dialectical method to investigate the trends and prospects of mechanical engineering in the state of Maranhão, in the great labor market and the demands of engineering. To achieve this goal, from references , data collection techniques and review of relevant legislation to contextualize the historical aspects of the emergence of Mechanical Engineering at the origin of Western Thought in Modern Science of Movements ; in Brazil; and specifically in the state of Maranhão. To assess the degree in engineering were checked the Higher Education Census Reports, developed by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research (INEP) and Ministry of Education (MEC). For analysis of the labor market, data were verified produced by the Ministry of Labor and Employment - Annual Social Information (RAIS), among others, the Census data prepared by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE).
