Genetic Engineering is a scientific process that has recently come a long way. Within the past four years of the twentieth century we have witnessed the most rapid adoption of a new technology in history. Millions of acres of farmland have been planted with genetically engineered crops since 1996. The crops consist mainly of corn‚ soybeans‚ and cotton. Genetic engineering techniques allow scientists to insert specific genes into plants and/or animals. Also‚ species are very easily crossed using genetic

Mechanical Engineering students should expect to find careers in manufacturing‚ fabrication‚ research and development‚ and service industries. The students should be very capable in mathematics and the physical sciences. This is essential to be successful in any engineering field. Mechanical engineers should be mechanical inclined and should be able to think “outside the box”. The students should be a great problem solver and critical thinker‚ and also be a calm and laid back person that can handle

place‚ scientists‚ specifically biologists‚ are becoming keener to the field of engineering. Genetic engineering that is. When one thinks of “genetic engineering‚” the first thought is probably a perfect child‚ or paradoxically some inconceivable creature‚ forged under the microscope in a scientific laboratory. Though both of these are genetic engineering‚ many people do not consider other things‚ such as genetic engineering of agriculture and medicine‚ both of which are extremely useful. Through the

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

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
