Systems engineering

Engineering is the field of sciences where applications of scientific subjects are used both theoretically and physically in order to innovate, design and construct new things for the betterment of the world. Engineering has been around since the 3rd century playing its role for the revolution of mankind and unlocking new doors to explore more. Technology’s main core element is engineering itself. Over the centuries that has passed through, the technologies that are invented are impacting in the…

Be that as it may, 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…

As briefly stated, during the past 5 years, I first started as an FEA and stress analysis responsible for design and engineering of the de-oiling units, but soon I got promoted to a senior mechanical engineer that became involved in different aspects of project execution, such as clients relationship, fabrication supervision, quality control, R&D and commissioning/start up support. In the last two years, due to the financial turmoil in the oil and gas market, I have been involved in budgeting…

Modernism has largely shaped todays built environment. The buildings inhabited, the furniture used, the surrounding graphic design, has all been influenced by the aesthetics and the ideology of Modernist design. The Modernists believed in technology as the key means to achieve social improvement and in the machine as a symbol of that aspiration. They fostered a utopian desire to create a better world. These principles were frequently combined with social and largely left-leaning political…

Small Engine Mechanic Small Engine Mechanics test and inspect engines for malfunctioning parts. They inspect, service, repair, build, and maintain motorized power equipment. Mechanics often specialize in one type of equipment but can often work their way up to working on almost everything and they can begin to make their way up to work and repair everything. The working conditions or environment is generally in a well ventilated but noisy repair shop or garage. They can also make on site…

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.…

“UC Davis Career and Internship Fair” This fall I started my journey with UC Davis. Davis is a really exciting, new and challenging chapter in my life. I moved from San Mateo, where I lived with my fiancée, to an apartment in Davis where I live on my own. Starting new school, and being surrounded by many new faces is not easy. I am not a person who can easily meet and connect with new people. UC Davis offers a lot of events for its students, some of them are very exciting like the…

could cherish, and watch improve humanity; in my own lifetime. I was suddenly very turned on to the idea of engineering, but I didn’t want to give up on learning the fruits of physics. I began looking at the chemistry, and chemical engineer major. Chemistry seemed to lead towards research also, so I leaned towards the chemical engineering discipline. During my research of the chemical engineering degree; to my delight; I found that the discipline is actually about fifty percent physics which I…

Idaho Governors Cup Scholarship Application I am a native Idahoan, straight and foremost which means that I have had the privilege of being raised in great place that has taught me much. From being able to kayak to knowing how to be a part of a community that is what I learned being an Idahoan is, However, what it should also mean to be an Idahoan is to be educated.

On August 23, 1958, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Federal Aviation Act, which established the FAA as an agency (Federal Aviation Act of 1958, n.d.). The FAA is a component of the Department of Transportation (DOT) and they are charged with ensuring that all civil aeronautical practices are performed with a level of safety that directly correlates to Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (Federal Aviation Regulations, 2010). Using the Title 14 CFR, the FAA has…
