According to the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech, engineering is the science of creating practical applications of knowledge from pure sciences such as physics and chemical plants. What wastedtalent.org says about what engineers do on a daily basis is that most of them analyze, problem solve, plan, and communicate with each other on a daily basis. Engineers do all types of work, each studies in a different field, they each have a specific part of a project to work on and they also help and/or communicate with each other. The four main engineering disciplines are chemical, civil, electrical and mechanical engineering. The Stanford Chemical Engineering website provides information on what chemical engineering is, chemical engineering is a discipline that influences fields of technology. Engineers are responsible for the conception and design of processes for the production, transformation and transportation of materials. According to Columbia Engineering, civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and built environment, which includes work on roads, bridges, canals, dams and buildings. Electrical engineering is the field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. According to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Washington, “Mechanical engineering is the broadest of all other engineering disciplines. It focuses on energy, fluid mechanics, dynamics, combustion, vibration, design and manufacturing processes, systems modeling and simulation, mechatronics, robotics, mechanics of materials, rapid. ..... middle of paper ......07, 2014, from http://www.wastedtalent.ca/node/1210Engineering.
