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

An interest group is a group that seeks a collective good‚ the achievement of which will not selectively and materially benefit the membership or activists of the organization. These organizations try to achieve at least some of their goals with government assistance. The difference between interest groups and political parties is that political parties seek to constitute the government‚ whereas interest groups try only to influence it. Some of the things that interests groups
