Engineering is defined as the science based profession by which the physical forces of nature and the properties of matter are made useful to mankind in the form of structures‚ machines‚ and other products or processes at a reasonable cost of money and time. An engineer is a person trained or skilled in designing and planning the performance of such equipment as machines and structures and in supervising their performance. An Environmental (or sanitary) Engineer is concerned with

Genetic Engineering Although genetic engineering is an entirely new field‚ it has fascinated mankind for many years. Genetic engineering gives the power to change many aspects of nature and could result in a lot of life-saving and preventative treatments. Today‚ scientists have a greater understanding of genetics and its role in living organisms. However‚ if this power is misused‚ the damage could be very great. Therefore‚ although genetic engineering is a field that should be explored‚ it needs

Chemical Engineering Chemical Engineering is the branch of engineering concerned with the design and operation of industrial chemical plants. I have been interested in chemical engineering at a young age because I have plenty of engineers in my family. I was influenced by my family to go into engineering because I witnessed how much my family worked‚ and how much it is able to support my family. Becoming an engineer ensures me of a stable job‚ and I will be financially stable. Chemical engineering is

CAREER IN ENGINEERING Engineering is one field that opens doors into a vast range of hardcore and allied science fields. Engineers have a wider choice of work options than any other profession‚ and have a vast scope in advanced areas such as: * Civil Engineering- Civil engineering has the broadest of career options within the field of engineering. This discipline deals with the design‚ construction‚ and maintenance of infrastructure works like roads‚ bridges‚ canals‚ dams‚ and buildings. It

Electronics engineering‚ [1] also referred to as electronic engineering[2][3] is an engineering discipline which uses the scientific knowledge of the behavior and effects of electrons to develop components‚ devices‚ systems‚ or equipment (as in electron tubes‚ transistors‚ integrated circuits‚ and printed circuit boards) that uses electricity as part of its driving force. Both terms denote a broad engineering field that encompasses many subfields including those that deal with power‚ instrumentation

Fortunately‚ it’s not too late and we can still change which is why many are pushing for green energy technology sources. The advantage of using green energy sources is that it is clean so it does not emit anything harmful into the air which has an impact on the environment. It is also renewable which means we will never run out of it unlike oil which is expected to dry up in a decade or so. Although green energy technology facilities are expensive to build‚ it requires less maintenance so you

Genetic engineering‚ also called genetic modification‚ is the direct manipulation of an organism’s genome using biotechnology. New DNA may be inserted in the host genome by first isolating and copying the genetic material of interest using molecular cloning methods to generate a DNA sequence‚ or by synthesizing the DNA‚ and then inserting this construct into the host organism. Genes may be removed‚ or "knocked out"‚ using a nuclease. Gene targeting is a different technique that useshomologous recombination to
