period in my life, I am interested in engineering, computers and the subject of math. I believe that I can piece all of these interests together in my professional life to change and enhance the condition of people’s lives all around the world. My personal and academic goals mean a lot to me. I enjoy both my engineering and math classes in TABC at the same time I challenge myself to certain fitness goals. In the distant future, I am interested in engineering because of its practical use in our…

it. For example, Wozniak created the Apple I, “a small stand-alone computer on a desktop…[that had] a keyboard, screen, and computer all in one integrated personal package,” during his time at the Homebrew Computer Club (Isaacson 212). At first, Wozniak gave away copies of the Apple I for free. However, Jobs convinced him to “hold them in the air and sell a few” (Isaacson 215). Because “Jobs was awed by Wozniak’s engineering wizardry, and Wozniak was awed by Jobs’s business drive,” there…
Engineering 1 Engineering Engineering Her Yang School of Engineering and Science Engineering 2 Introduction Steam engine is the first one or one of first engineering tools to be engineered and there are many other tools that are created such as the different types of engineering that are in us today to build those things such as mechanical, electrical, civil, chemical engineering, computer engineering and many others. According to USC Viterbi “School of Engineering…
Genetic engineering is the deliberated modification of the characteristics of an organism by manipulation its genetic material. There are many potential benefits of genetic engineering. Some include tackling and defeating disease, eliminating illness in young and unborn children, potentially longer life expectancy, and the ability to produce new foods. While these are benefits and could change the world for the better; the cons of genetic engineering outweigh the pros. To begin…
Andreessen Marc Andreessen lived a fairly normal childhood, except for the fact that he was a computer genius. Andreessen was born to Lowell and Patricia Andreessen in Cedar Falls Iowa on July 9th, 1971. Although he got his computer in 7th grade, he learned the basic programming of a computer at the age of 9 from a library book. Andreessen never had any love of sports. He preferred experimenting with his computer and soon began to design video games when he had free time. He was given an…
As the first speakers started off with today’s presentations, I was really intrigued and fascinated by the Industrial Engineers, Justin Melmick and Zac Stachowiak, as they talked about their job at Universal Studios and I’m pretty sure everybody else was too. Although it started off well, it did not exactly end off too interesting, since I think Dr. Damla Turgut and Dr. Alain Kassab’s presentation seemed kind of dull. I kind of felt like I zoned out during their presentations because I did not…
Engineering is one of the most sought after and highly paid professions in the US. People consider those who obtain a degree in any engineering field as highly intellectual minds and skilled professionals. Engineering is a tough field which demands a lot of effort hard work from the students but as soon as they are awarded degrees, a world of opportunities comes to their doorstep. If you are a student who aspires to become an engineer, you need to study the right subjects at high school to get…
make something better. One career in engineering is being a computer engineer. A computer engineer one who fixes computers and find ways to make them smaller and smarter. Computers engineers specialize in one specific area. They are usually split up into two groups with one working on the software and the other working with hardware. The people who specialize in hardware are the ones who design the computer and also work on computer…
of computer engineering. Coming from humble begging’s, Zuse’s father worked at a post office to support his son’s interest in computers. Born in Berlin, Zuse attended school as an architect until switching to a civil engineering degree. Tedious calculations in his school work made Zuse want to develop a machine to help him. After taking a job in Herschel Aircraft Co., he began to work on the Z1, his first attempt at a mechanical computer. After 3 years of work, he produced the first computer to…
