Cost engineering

as an FEA and stress analysis responsible for design and engineering of the de-oiling units, but soon I got promoted to a senior mechanical engineer that became involved in different aspects of project execution, such as clients relationship, fabrication supervision, quality control, R&D and commissioning/start up support. In the last two years, due to the financial turmoil in the oil and gas market, I have been involved in budgeting and costing of our product lines, with the aim of optimizing design and lowering products’ overall cost, thus tailoring to the new market’s conditions. Due to the full exposure to a diversified fields of expertise, I recently became the engineering manager, consequently took a relevant course at University of Calgary in Sept. 2015 that was funded by Alberta Government and EWS in part, titled as “Business Essentials (BE) 2015-2016”. This course dragged me out of my conventional zone and gave me the chance to look at the engineering scene and its solution-providing approaches from a higher level. YOU ARE GIVING TOO MANY UNNECESSSARY DETAILS! THESE ARE ALL IN YOUR CV. It enabled me to realized my inherent leadership skills in mechanical engineering field and how much I could…

Regardless of the field of study, a challenging set of problems to solve is often related to ethics. Engineering is no exception. One specific scenario pertaining to ethics in engineering is about Rob, the manager of an electronic chip production firm, and his respectable coworker named Shane, the lead engineer of his production line. Shane’s team manufacturers and tests 100,000 chips yearly to assemble their final product involving prongs and spot plates. Unfortunately, certain chips are…

It can also leap up about 30 feet! This skill lets the little wheel bug jump over walls and send video back to the humans while it 's airborne. Studying and learning from nature has contributed to new ideas in just about every branch of engineering. Ways to Get Into the Field What do you need to learn to be able to get a head start as an engineer? You can study and read about science, math, and technology. You can visit technology museums. You can get involved with local Science Fairs and…

Value Proposition Our tablet, the Microsoft Surface Pro, has unique features for engineering students that our competitors lack. Distinctive benefits such as the surface pen and keyboard both offer the same input capabilities that a desktop offers with more efficiency. Utilizing these features, along with the app for education and multi-tasking windows, could help significantly reduce Cullen engineering students’ and faculties time with homework, studies, and other online assignments. Features…

Planes and rockets are both a unique part of engineering that have many aspects that are important in design. Aerospace engineers often tackle challenges in the office utilizing data and overseeing operations on daily basis. There have been failures and successes that make this field one of the most rigorous fields. Aerospace engineering can be considered one of the least forgiving forms of engineering, but it is worth the effort and achievements that come with it. There are many different…

Engineering Disasters One of the most famous engineers was Thomas Edison who famously stated that “ [he had] not failed, [he had discovered] 10,000 ways that did not work”. Despite Edison’s numerous failures, he eventually perfected his version of the light bulb, got it patented and proceeded to make his invention available to consumers. Edison’s approach illustrates the engineer’s ideal process, as he repeatedly tests and perfects the design of the desired result before releasing the result to…

challenging career opportunity as a Projects Officer at the Department of Parliamentary Services (DPS), where I can utilise my qualifications and extensive expertise in various analogous positions such as Project Engineer and Projects Officer spanning 10 years. Leading by example and achieving exceptional results aligned with business objectives, I have demonstrated advanced proficiency in building strong and mutually beneficial relationships with key stakeholders, supporting the delivering of…

My goal is to pursue graduate studies in order to further develop less-expensive third generation thin film solar cell materials such as copper indium gallium selenide for multi-junction cells to increase efficiency and sunlight absorption. I want to research methods to develop new non vacuum processes to reduce the cost of solar cells’ production. With a decrease in production cost, solar cells may be manufactured in larger quantities so that students in developing countries can have…

Change is everywhere. In today’s business world, change is inevitable. To prosper and survive in the modern business environment, organizations must be aware of the drivers that stimulate change and implement initiatives in response to these changes. These drivers can include new competition, unfavorable economic conditions, and increased cost of raw materials, to name a few. Transformation planning is a process of developing a strategic plan for changing an organization’s systems, processes,…

Engineering is the field of sciences where applications of scientific subjects are used both theoretically and physically in order to innovate, design and construct new things for the betterment of the world. Engineering has been around since the 3rd century playing its role for the revolution of mankind and unlocking new doors to explore more. Technology’s main core element is engineering itself. Over the centuries that has passed through, the technologies that are invented are impacting in the…
