Environmental Engineering is a discipline of engineering devoted to the development and application of scientific knowledge through technology to eliminate or minimize adverse effects associated with human activities. It operates at four different levels: remediation of contaminated sites‚ treatment of effluents‚ pollution prevention‚ and care for future generations. Environmental engineering is fundamentally object-focused‚ rather than tool-based. It therefore draws from all other engineering disciplines

Biology 2A 2/23/14 Genetic engineering is making changes in the DNA code of a living organism‚ working almost the same. It has many purposes including clones‚ perfect humans and cures for genetic diseases. Gel electrophoresis is a powerful tool used for separation and analysis of macromolecules and their fragments‚ based on their size and charge. You place the DNA in the gel. DNA is a long‚ strand-like molecule where genes are written in genetic code. Extracted enzymes recognize and extract the

To study biomedical engineering has been my dream. Einstein distinguished science from engineering when he explained‚ "Scientists investigate that which already is; engineers create that which has never been.". I wish to pursue a career in biomedical engineering as it is a great way of being involved in both fields of engineering and medicine. My desire to study biomedical engineering had been driven by the desire to treat diseases through the help of modern technology. I was always been fascinated
