Earthquake engineering

Engineering belongs in many different fields, but what makes them similar is the thought process of the engineer. Engineers have to have an innate curiosity about them they not only have to wonder about how the world the works and why it works that way, but have to look for opportunities to enhance life in every field they can. Civil engineers look at the world and land to create something different and functional then what was there before. Civil engineers mostly work on structures to help…

learned about and how every body system was so intricate in its functioning. I also loved how different levels of organization affect upper levels of the body system. However, there was another class I found even more fun and intriguing than biology: engineering. I also was enrolled in “Introduction to Technological Education” during my freshman year. The class focused a lot on problem-solving with different situations. One of these projects was an egg-catching mobile that was powered by a…

Ethics Case Study I. Facts The engineers behind Mold Watch, an innovative mold detecting fridge, which utilizes UV lights to prolong the shelf life of food and reduce food waste, decided not to consult a specialist on the dangers of UV lights and instead conducted their own research to determine what frequency of the UV light would best disinfect the food. They knew that prolonged exposure to UV light could cause eye damage, but still decided to use the most potent frequency in order to…
