Fields of engineering

In this essay it will explain about the similarities and differences between two units of Algebra 1, Unit 2 and Unit 4. Between Unit 2 and Unit 4 there are many similarities and differences in their lessons. In Unit 2 its lessons were based off of equalities, or equations, and in Unit 4 it is based off of inequalities. There are three main related lessons between these two units and they are, one-step equations to solving inequalities with addition and subtraction, multi-step equations to…

given at Chaffey College. Professor Hollenbeck graduated from the UCLA School of engineering in 1967 as a mechanical engineer. After graduating, he worked as a development engineer in the aerospace industry for 4 yrs. Two years after being hired, he was laid off for six weeks. Realizing that layoffs could be common he spent those six weeks considering whether or not he wanted to continue his career in engineering. Because he had enjoyed physics…

To gather information about mechanical engineering, I interviewed Graham Jessup, a graduate from the University of Washington and a mechanical engineer at Electroimpact Engineering; a company based in Mukilteo Washington. Electroimpact is a world leader in design and manufacturing of aerospace tooling and automation. During the interview that took place through several emails, I learned much about what mechanical engineers are required to know, and how they use that knowledge to fully accomplish…

area, pay, and how stable the job is. The Bureau of Labor Statistics confirms the median pay for mechanical engineers is $83,060 per year which estimates to approximately $39.93 per hour (“Mechanical Engineers”). This is one of the lowest paying engineering jobs although it is one of the most important. Pay is a major idea that people look at when searching for the right job. They not only look at pay but they also seek stableness. “Texas employees about 18,250 people per year. Nationally the…

least of their concerns. Protesters were there to proclaim justice for all the farm workers that had been denied the right for proper working conditions in the fields. Bertha Silva came from a Mexican decedent, her parents moved to Delano, California when she was the age of 11. Soon after arriving, the family started working in the grape fields. Grandmother cultivated in the vines until the age of 22, when she was recruited into the Cesar Chavez movement. Silva joined the beautiful historic…

Walking out onto the green grass of the Braden River Soccer Fields, I have butterflies in my stomach. It was a hot, beautiful day with the sun beating down and not a cloud in the sky. I look at the small, red clubhouse building and see four of my teammates sitting down against the wall of it. I hardly knew anyone on my team, except a boy named Noah with blond, curly hair and pale skin. As my team showed up one by one, nobody said anything to each other. Before the game started, our coach, Coach…

start of any day for my dad before he could go outside and play stookie in the fields. A game we Americans know by tag. He would complete a list; first go out into the chicken coops, and collect the fresh eggs for that morning after collecting the eggs, he would clean and properly maintain the chicken coops. Second my father would herd the cows and pigs into their area of the field, walking from one of the gated field to the next with a stick to herd them properly. Finally my dad would head over…

papers for my classes, and I have done so nonchalantly without giving them much thought. I do recall the one time that my research paper from my Principles of Engineering class changed my outlook on not just my writing but also on my future. In my Principles of Engineering class, we were assigned to write a research paper on a branch of engineering that we found interesting and expand on it by expressing our motives for choosing that branch. Our paper had to be five pages long and include at…

lack of skilled workers in the field.” (EduChoice.org) The Manufacturing field typically tends to be a very reliable field to be in “For every $1.00 spent in manufacturing, another $1.40 is added to the economy. That is the highest multiplier effect of any economic sector” per, The National Association of Manufactures. (National Association of Manufactures) This fact played a large role in my current degree, mechanical engineering. Going into mechanical engineering will allow me to use several…

“I was born,” Miss Gilly said, reaching for a tin of snuff. She took a pinch between her forefinger and thumb and placed it between her bottom lip and gums. She had no teeth that I could see. “I know that probably sounds kind a silly to you,” she said. “But I remember hearing that at the beginning of the story Melanie Wilkes was reading aloud on that picture show, Gone with the Wind. I felt that I was born was as good a beginning as any to tell the story of my life, especially when the story…
