Discover engineering: chosen engineering disciplineWhat is engineering? Engineering is the study of innovation and problem solving to create a better way. What type of work do engineers do? Engineering is a diverse field that can put you in a situation that requires you to know more knowledge and skills than you already have. Going from solving problems to collaborating to create new ideas (2012 Project Lead the Way, Inc. IED Activity 1.5 Discover Engineering-Page1. https://pltw.instructure.com/courses/121874/assignments/581896. Engineers can change the world. They think of creative solutions and work with others, motivating people to invent, design, and create useful and important things Engineering Professions Engineering refers to four major disciplines in the. field: chemical, electrical, civil and mechanical All engineering jobs or positions would apply to these four elements and connect them to complete the research or project. A chemical engineer works with scientific principles, chemistry,. physics and engineering innovative and creative ways to produce everyday goods, such as making a new, softer type of material for clothing Civil engineering is based on design, construction and. he maintenance of the structures that make up our world's highways, skyscrapers, railways, bridges and water reservoirs. Take care of building maintenance and infrastructure. Civil engineering can sometimes be the subject of lectures to transmit knowledge to young and future engineers. Electrical engineering is the field that involves components such as MP3 players, digital cameras, and roller coasters. Fields that are very fond of technological innovation, work...... middle of paper ......They share the same core skills and are both different types of problem solvers. I think engineering is called the stealth profession because they are the ones who think inside and outside the box; but in reality, it's because most people don't actually know what engineers do. It's a bit of a shame because it's all sort of engineering related. Last but not least, what is engineering and what type of work do engineers do? A very complex field where you have to know a little bit of everything and always keep up. They can work in areas related to the four main disciplines: civil, mechanical, electrical and chemical.
