Fields of engineering

If there is anything to write on the subject of Architecture 101, I could not help but wonder is there anything more primordial, more primeval, intuitive or simply more basic than to write about Space and Form? Architecture students (or for that, matter professionals), generally marvel at Form simply because of its direct visual and tactile nature experienced through their (and our own) baser sensory perception. But Space is not as tangible; and this is where both fumble. It is only natural;…

Exploration, encounter, exchange. When I heard of the theme for this year’s history day competition, I knew immediately that Lewis and Clark would be the ideal project. I have always been interested in Lewis and Clark’s monumental discoveries as well as what their journey was like. Exploration encounter and exchange, being vital during their journey showed I would have a well rounded topic for researching. I started my research with background information. I had minimal knowledge of Lewis…

period in my life, I am interested in engineering, computers and the subject of math. I believe that I can piece all of these interests together in my professional life to change and enhance the condition of people’s lives all around the world. My personal and academic goals mean a lot to me. I enjoy both my engineering and math classes in TABC at the same time I challenge myself to certain fitness goals. In the distant future, I am interested in engineering because of its practical use in our…

The word LEGO is a recognizable word across the United States. All millennials have known what LEGOs are because they are how we showed our ideas. LEGOs allowed us to craft our imaginations into real life master pieces. Before Thanksgiving Break we were given the opportunity build with LEGOs in an English 1230 class. I would not say we were playing with LEGOs because we were relating back to a childhood memory. Our brains are more developed, but do we still have our imagination? The project…

during his time at the Homebrew Computer Club (Isaacson 212). At first, Wozniak gave away copies of the Apple I for free. However, Jobs convinced him to “hold them in the air and sell a few” (Isaacson 215). Because “Jobs was awed by Wozniak’s engineering wizardry, and Wozniak was awed by Jobs’s business drive,” there teamwork eventually resulted in one of the world’s biggest companies: Apple (Isaacson 217). In conclusion, Davis and Isaacson think that the best team is composed of people…

The subjects which I have chosen to continue at A level, are subjects which I find both stimulating and enjoyable. I have always wanted to study maths and science, over the arts, as I find that this appeals to the logical side of my mind. In general, STEM subjects come more naturally to me, and therefore, I would like to study Maths, Further Maths, Chemistry, and Physics in sixth-form, also believing that they will also be vital for the science-related job I would like to find in the future. In…

As a freshman, I struck a deal with myself: I would focus on Bible Quizzing and on the Academic Team until I graduated high school, and once I began college, I would focus solely on mathematics. This concentration would allow me to compete at a much higher level in both activities while only sacrificing a few years of studying mathematics. Fortunately, it has worked almost perfectly; I have Bible quizzed multiple times at the National level, have placed third and fourth at State while on the…

choice school for many reasons, one being the sophisticated engineering program that is offered. Not only is UW Madison’s College of Engineering among the top engineering programs offered in the nation, it also offers many research opportunities. The University of Wisconsin-Madison is renowned for its wide range of research opportunities and its focus on research, which reflects the mission statement of the UW Madison College of Engineering, which involves using research and innovative teaching…

As the class finishes up the prototyping unit, I think about my personal experiences during the planning, prototyping, and creation of my media charging stand. A few changes were made along the way to a successful project, but overall, I am happy with the outcome. I will walk you through my thought process and experiences as I applied my skills (or lack thereof), while we worked in the wood shop. At the beginning of the unit, we were presented with a problem. We had to design a few sketches of…

Careers in the automotive field are always a great necessity in today’s society. You can always count on the fact that people will need assistance with their automobiles. Throughout the years up until today, the evolution with cars have skyrocketed; with style, dynamics, technology, and also safety precautions. A key component that designers still take into consideration is how far along designs have come from the birth of the seemingly prehistoric Hot Rod. The technology available today are a…
