ESSAY: WHY I WANT TO BE A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER Amy McLeod “Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable‚ like a walking encyclopaedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the art of the organised forcing of technological change… Engineers operate at the interface of science and society.” - Dean Gordon Brown.

Fan Cart Lab We did a fan cart for our physics class the other day. To set up the lab first‚ we measured the effect of the mass of the fan cart on the acceleration of the cart. The mass of the fan cart was the independent variable and acceleration was the dependent variable. We kept the speed of the cart on medium‚ and calculated the acceleration and motion. As a result‚ we had figured out that the bigger the mass the slower the acceleration‚ as we all should have known. To calculate this we used

1. I’m a bit intimidated by physics‚ however I believe I can learn anything as long as I put time into it. I feel my biggest challenge would be dealing with the mathematics in physics. Although there is math involved I would not say I have a negative outlook on physic. Physics was not a subject or a profession that was glamorized when I was a kid‚ so there was limited interest. 2. The question I ask myself after watching Dr. Greene’s video‚ is why physics is not glamorized such as sports

priorities might differ—this is the list of a theorist concerned with research. None of the items listed was learned in kindergarten; in fact‚ none was part of my university or graduate curriculum. It turns out t h a t all I really need to know about physics I had to dig up by myself. A physicist’s credo Keep notes of ideas‚ lectures and work. Memory fades but what is written down stays yours. While young you may wing it‚ but once you turn 40 or 50‚ your notes—numbered‚ dated‚ indexed and collected

Human and Natural Sciences are similar. The human and natural sciences are similar in a sense that the two subjects require a certain theory or perhaps hypothesis in order to conduct an experience and such. By means‚ let’s take psychology and physics as an example. In both sciences‚ scientists/psychologists require a generated hypothesis to investigate a certain study. Hypothesis acts as a guiding question to some extent for them since it is their goal to find out if their generated hypothesis
