Engineer

Communication Defining Social Engineering Social engineering is defined by Berti (2003) as “the criminal art of tricking staff into revealing corporate information.” Social engineering can take place on various levels, and for various purposes. Social engineers can target other individuals and extract enough information to steal their identities (Brower, 2010). They can also use social engineering to perform reconnaissance on an organization, gaining critical knowledge to plan a future attacks.…

out their connections and establish relationships with people that can help them to achieve their personal goals. If you would ask a “world class” engineer if they established any connections over the years, they would probably say dozens. An engineer to that stature would have a ton of relationships in their field that have helped them become the engineer that they are today. Having a relationship with your peers allows for team cohesiveness, social aspects, and personal support. Everyone makes…

culturally sensitive sign language in a professional environment) and listening skills. So developing these skills are important in day to day practicing life. Sometimes I encounter some colleagues and even clients that have very “thick” accents. As an engineer you need to be able to understand their requirements and “problems” in order to respond to them. One particular example, at the very first client meeting where we had a client representative with Scottish accent which I found very…

The term ethical engineering is problematic and faced by many professional engineers today. Questions, such as, “What should I do?”, “Is this morally correct?”, “Am I going to be responsible for these actions?”, etc. arise in many occasions. Volkswagen engineer, James Liang, was faced with these questions when he developed a device to “cheat” the national United States emissions tests, therefore making it seem that the Volkswagen was reputable, and it could be noted as a “clean diesel” vehicle…

mentorship for females pursuing engineer careers. According to Theresa Barger, a writer for The New York Times, “[H]aving a mentor who faced similar discrimination and figured out a way to be taken seriously makes all the difference” (Barger). While an effective mentor can be of either gender, an experienced female engineer is more likely than an experienced male engineer to experience struggles similar with those faced by the rising generation of female engineers, such as workplace bias or…

and mechanical. Civil engineers get paid well and mostly work for the government in…

reason, I am determined to equip myself with scientific proficiency in order to suffice the demand of our expeditious society in the future. During one occasion, I had the chance to discuss with a civil engineer about his occupation. I was undoubtedly astonished by the capability of the engineer based on their extraordinary skills, the fast-paced environment and the expectations to an extent that I grew deep interested in becoming one. In addition to my enthusiasm towards modeling and crafting,…

The book starts off by giving an example of biotechnology and how technology has led engineers to make such innovative technology to help the humankind to recover better and be healthy. For example: the technology that was developed in recent years to help the victims who have burned skin but, instead of replacing the damaged skin by getting…

comparing and contrasting an aerospace engineer and a business manager. Both careers involve in different salaries, conditions, working hours, and levels of educational training, but are similar in skills and benefits. An aerospace engineer requires less educational levels of training than a business manager but a business manager does not need any job authorizations, whereas an aerospace engineer does Furthermore, business managers and aerospace engineers are low demand, high levels of…

Overall, I think the Corps in the Classroom campaign was a huge success. They had plenty of strengths within their campaign. For starters, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers did a lot of research which consisted of both qualitative and quantitative data from the Equal Employment Opportunity report, which evaluated STEM involvement levels for that year. Not to mention their secondary research, which included reports from the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, the National…
