to achieve success in all aspect of the organisation. Workplace skills branches off to technical and transferable skills. To build a self-competitive advantage it is crucial to possess both of the skills. Previous to my enrolment in the course Engineering Practise Preview 1, I had minimal understanding of the topic Workplace skills. My understanding…

scientists and engineers.” Within my lifetime I have heard an unremarkable amount of facts and figures concerning how much STEM is growing, and thus have been greatly encouraged to pursue a degree in these fields. I am planning to major in Electrical Engineering and my mother is very pleased about this because I, according to her “need to get a good job that will provide for my wife as well as my mother.” I can honestly say that if I were to tell her that I was changing my major to philosophy…

and the wider public. An engineer without integrity or character can directly affect the safety, health, and welfare of the public. Temperance should be used to gain honesty, integrity, and justice among the pubic. A virtue ethics approach to engineering ethics provides useful insights as well as has a great potential to be able to deal with complex situations. It is necessary for engineers to be virtuous and possess certain attributes in order to be good engineers. Over the course of my career…

project and execution of the project as an advisor, work started in 1999. Another important appointment was of Shri Apparao Rajamathanty as Manager of the Science City project from 2000 to 2013. This big an area demanded quite a number of architects and civil contractors since the plan was to construct a number of buildings in…

This process of sealing was to cease all possibility of water touching the slurry and allowing for it to moisten. It was a necessary process. As for the steel frames that were going to be used for the building, Yamaski and the engineers agreed on bringing “kangaroo” cranes, which were cranes that would function with help of diesel motors and they were self powered. The reason for this was because since the goal for the buildings were to be the tallest building at their time back then, they…

L.B. Agar Lysogeny broth (LB), a nutritionally rich medium, is primarily used for the growth of bacteria. The abbreviation is commonly taken to mean Luria broth, Lennox broth, or Luria-Bertani medium. According to its creator Giuseppe Bertani, the abbreviation LB was actually intended to stand for lysogeny broth (1). The formula of the LB medium was published in 1951 and continues to be the most common media used today (2). There are several common formulas of LB. Although they are different,…

I definitely will prove by these career of engineer, I am able to explore more and change world’s view to something bigger and outstanding. Engineers are very impactful in our daily lives. Throughout history, engineers and those who working in engineering field have contributed so much in many aspects of life, be it physical, daily life or even a props for a babies. Buildings we see nowadays are the progress and worked from engineers. The airplane we ride to fly is a countless contribution of…

According to USC Viterbi “School of Engineering…

locked up in the human imagination that need to become reality? These are questions that came to mind as a result of a recent lecture by Dr. Ray Stefani. Dr. Ray Stefani is a retired electrical engineer who taught Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Engineering Technology courses at Cal State Long Beach. He is a sports enthusiast who is very fond of watching the Olympics. Besides sports, Dr. Ray likes to travel and has been privileged to see many countries in the world. Also, he…

accessible. Once I realized this, I started to develop an interest in transportation engineering. My undergraduate education at Iowa State University provided me with basic insight and knowledge about general Civil Engineering. Out of all of the specializations in Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering has interested me the most. I would like to further develop my knowledge of transportation engineering, specifically traffic safety and efficiency, by pursuing a Master’s Degree at Iowa…
