Take a look around the room and at all the items that surround you. What do you see? Probably some chairs, or maybe even some books or probably even a television. Engineers have shaped our world as we know it. An engineer helped make all of these everyday items. Engineers solve practical problems by applying mathematical and scientific knowledge. The word engineer comes from a Latin word meaning ‘cleverness’. The actual definition of an engineer is “A term applied to the profession in which a…
study that evaluates the action of the Nazi’s Engineer during the Auschwitz regime. His main purpose is to educate future engineers to be careful about ethics, humanity, and morality. Katz argues that the Nazi’s Engineer was lacking the basic of engineering ethics. The Nazi’s Engineer would just follow…
goal consists of acquiring a Bachelor 's degree in Civil Engineering. I am preparing to do this by taking High School classes that are providing the basic concepts I need to learn before I take an Engineering course in college. Some examples of classes that have helped me get prepared are Physics by teaching me the basic principles of motion and concepts of energy and force, AP Statistics by giving me rigorous assignments, Intro to Engineering Design that taught me how to utilize AutoCAD to…
Engineering is a branch of science and technology that deals with design, building, and the use of engines, machines, and structure. There are a lot of carries within the enormous branch that people refer to as engineering. The two branches that got my attention were electrical engineer and mechanical engineer. Since this two branches deal with different aspects of engineering, I will be talking about engineering as a big branch. Therefore, Engineering has responsibilities that help the worker…
Over the course of the book Annihilation, I became aware of many terms and other scientific things that I had not known before. The book was very good and I thoroughly enjoyed the suspense that was created and how it was filled with lots of scientific material. There were many instances that coalesced between the book and the eight themes of science that we were supposed to do for our reading logs. Many of them have to do with biology, because the main character is a biologist, but some other…
During the fieldtrip, which was held Thursday, February 22, I have made a lot of realization. Thronateeska and The Flint Riverquarium supplied me with an abundance of information on the Earth and beyond it. Now I have knowledge on how the solar system and the Earth was created, fossils and other science materials, the dangers of plastic, and creatures living amongst us humans. This was a very thrilling experience for me and I can’t wait until I can visit again. When I was watching the first…
On Thursday December 7th, I attended a professional lecture at Montclair State University Campus from Takeo Kanade. The lecture was apart of the Roboto-San series on campus which discussed the history and changes in robotics from the personal experiences of Dr. Kanade. The Lecture was known as The Future of Robotics: A Multicultural Perspective from My Fun Research in Computer Vision and Robotics which displayed his personal opinions on how robotics has advanced. Takeo Kanade gave his own…
Across the United States, there is a huge demand for women of all ages in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) based careers. Many corporations have created programs to help generate more interest in women, especially at a young age. Learning the basics of STEM, demand for engineers, and programs for women have been essential to the development of keeping the attention from women. Consequently, the problem for a career in secondary education in math is the lack of interest…
Communication in Industrial Engineering The world will always need engineers to bring ideas into life, however engineering is not for everyone. Thankfully, there are many different branches of engineering, whether it be mechanical, electrical, chemical, etc. One commonly overlooked is the field of industrial engineering. After I was certain I wanted to go into engineering, I took a good look at all the fields available. I decided that industrial engineering was the best fit for me, but I still…
harder science ones like Chemistry or Biology. I also did not go to the Health Science tables. This event made me very excited about the PPE Major. I went to the “What’s in a Major” events for Computer Science, Physics, and PPE. I did not go to Engineering because it was not yet on my radar. The Computer Science advisor was very nice and made me very excited about Computer Science. She especially liked pointing out the combined majors and the possibility of putting different things together.…
