Matthew Nease Prof. McCammon October 17‚ 2010 Mechanical Engineering Mechanical engineering is a field of engineering concerned with the design‚ construction‚ and operation of machinery. Mechanical Engineering is the field of study that I decided to pursue during my time in college. There are many classes that must be taken and mastered in order to obtain a degree for mechanical engineering. I personally chose this career path due to the involvement in the mechanical aspect and for the

HEALTH AND SAFETY LEGISLATIONS Occupational health and safety legislations are enforced to regulate the standards of workplace health and safety with the main aim of preventing workplace accidents‚ injuries and diseases. They also outline consequences for breaches of such standards. They provide‚ in detail‚ the responsibilities of employers‚ supervisors‚ and of employees. Generally‚ the legislations require the employer to do everything they can rationally do to protect the health and safety of their

Introduction Career in mechanical engineering involves grappling with various aspects of the technical and practical work. The job of a mechanical engineer involves widespread handling of machines and components which have a direct relation with power by producing it‚ transmitting it or even making use of power. The major concern of mechanical engineers is bent towards ways and mechanisms through which natural energy sources are converted into uses of practical nature. As part of their work‚ mechanical

have inspired humanity as much as aerospace engineering. Many of the technological advances that are now part of our daily lives‚ such as handheld calculators and non-stick pans‚ were initially developed to aid in space flight. Today’s aerospace engineers are still working to help us view the edges of the universe as well as improve the way that we live our lives right here on planet earth.” (Peterson’s staff) This quotation proves that Aerospace engineering has changed the world for the better.

is so important in developing software systems‚ software engineers have chance to do good‚ cause harm‚ or to allow others to do bad things. To ensure that they work for the good side‚ software engineers must commit themselves to making software engineering a beneficial and respected profession. In the software world‚ like in ethical world‚ if a good belief exists‚ such as everything will be perfect‚ things can fall completely on the other side. People think‚ and make different decisions‚ but understanding

Health and Safety Plan Safety Inspections and Sample Safety Inspection Checklists Even if safety inspections were not strongly recommended‚ they are an excellent way for the department to reference the commitment to safe work practices‚ provide practical training in safety awareness and minimize hazards at the workplace. These inspections provide a systematic method for involving supervisors‚ employees‚ safety coordinators‚ and/or safety committees in the process of eliminating workplace hazards

“A scientist discovers that which exists. An engineer creates that which never was.” It was this quote by Theodore von Karman in my high school physics book that sparked my interest in engineering. Engineering allows for the designing and constructing of structures that most people could only dream of but they could not live without. From bridges spanning oceans to connect countries to artificial islands on which building complexes can provide housing for thousands of people. This notion is what
