Professor Elizabeth Kraske SCIN130 Introduction to Biology September 18 2013 Genetic Engineering After bringing myself up to date with some further research on genetic engineering or also referred to as genetic modification‚ here are some of my thoughts on the pros and cons. But before we jump right into it‚ I should tell you a little about what genetic engineering is. Genetic engineering refers to a set of technologies that are being used to change the genetic makeup of cells. You hear

Imagine for a second that you are sitting in a hospital room. Your loved one has been admitted to the emergency room and is hooked up to an ekg monitor which is the only device monitoring them while the doctors and nursing staff leave to see other patients. Not many people think of the Biomedical engineer who built this device‚ and even less people consider the virtues that engineer learned in their undergraduate degree. Consider the outcomes of this scenario if the person who built that device

encouraged me in the courses I have taken in high school‚ mainly within the math and science fields. I have always excelled in these subjects. I have decided that I am willing to use this as inspiration to pursue a career in the field of mechanical engineering. My desire for math and science has already guided a path for me through high school that I am eager to continue at the college level. From the age of two‚ I could construct Legos by looking only at the picture on the box; instructions were not

Civil engineering is the job of building structures‚ buildings‚ roads‚ airports and many more things. I think this is one of the most important jobs there are. This is one of the oldest engineering perfessions. To become a civil engineer you typically have to complete a four year college program and major in civil engineering. The main types of civil engineering are‚ coastal‚ construction‚ earthquake‚ environmental‚ geotechnical‚ structural‚ and transportation. Structural engineering dates back

engineers today face a major dilemma when it comes to deciding what should hold paramount‚ economic gain or moral statute? Many practicing engineers are faced with problems that result from the consequences of their engineering decisions. Engineers have to realize the importance of proper engineering decisions and how one should act when faced with a problem such as deciding what comes first safety or economic gain. When faced with such a problem‚ engineers often employ the risk-benefit analysis to determine

Civil engineering is not too hard because you have different position‚ different branches. When you start going to school‚ to take 2 or 3 classes for each branch‚ and when you graduate‚ you can tell which one you enjoy the most‚ but basically with that degree‚ you can do so many things. Engineering is very practical‚ and it’s different every day. At the beginning‚ you will learn‚ but after that‚ it’s all about solving problems. Every day‚ you do something different‚ like different problems‚ different

been my dream to become a successful engineer when I complete my studies in the field of engineering. Since I was a small child‚ I had a special passion for this particular area of interest. This is because I see this career as a good reason for the evolution of life and satisfaction of my long cherished ambition. From this point‚ I started to focus my efforts on fulfilling this aspiration. To me‚ engineering is a great field of human endeavor that requires challenge‚ initiative and hard work. It

is genetic engineering of human embryos. There are currently two different approaches to this manipulation: embryo elimination or genetic alterations. There are ethical issues regarding genetic engineering. Altering or eliminating defective embryos to ensure a healthy child is acceptable. Modification of the genetic makeup of an embryo to attain desired characteristics or the creation of a designer baby is unethical. In addition the creation of designer babies through genetic engineering to create
