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…

part of engineering that have many aspects that are important in design. Aerospace engineers often tackle challenges in the office utilizing data and overseeing operations on daily basis. There have been failures and successes that make this field one of the most rigorous fields. Aerospace engineering can be considered one of the least forgiving forms of engineering, but it is worth the effort and achievements that come with it. There are many different subsections of aerospace engineering.…

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…

to graduate school labs. My father dedicated his life, passion, and determination to his emotional engineering research and students. I grew up watching my father formulate innovative hypotheses and implement them in real-life engineering systems; from these observations, I have grown my own passion and determination to achieve something similar in my future. I pursued my education in engineering in college, and although my grades in my initial years were not excellent, I have matured as a…

Engineering work touches on all aspects of everyday life. For this reason engineers are held to a high moral standard. This sense of responsibility and morality should be instilled in engineers from their formation. Gerald McLean focuses on the formative nature of engineering student's ethical instruction in his article, "Integrating Ethics and Design". McLean's purpose for writing this article is to convince the reader that the study of ethics should be integrated in engineering students'…

has been a large increase in science, engineering, and technology in the workforce. Alabama has also seen the increase in jobs in those fields and is trying to set up its school systems to be stronger in the different areas. The state of Alabama believes that science, engineering, technology, and society are all interdependent and should be taught in a way that shows their connectedness. The position that they stand behind is science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education…

there are still many career fields in which women are underrepresented. Evidence of the aforementioned disproportionate representation is clearly evident in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) fields. As a STEM woman, this confounded me. What factors contributed to the lack of strong female presence-- a phenomenon which I considered an anomaly. Were there any recognized biological differences which made men more capable of achieving success in STEM fields than women? “In 1990,…

Gender Gap in Engineering Engineering has always been considered an exceptional major throughout the history. It combines various human characteristics and brings out their scientific and leadership skills. It is one of the few majors that are known for their intellectual challenges and tough problem solving situations. However, with all the scientific and technological advancements in the field of engineering, the controversy of whether or not females can work in this field and handle all its…

technical skills engineering is a professional discipline that has put man on the moon and will take humanity far beyond in to the stars. To design, innovate and advance technological solutions for the world is the modern engineer’s purpose in life. Engineering consists of four chief branches, civil engineering, electrical engineering; chemical engineering and mechanical engineering (Engineering, 2014). This paper will cover three of the four engineering fields. Electrical engineering is the…
