2.  There is more than one kind of engineer.
 There is aerospace, agricultural,
avionics, chemical, civil, computer,
electrical, environmental, food, genetic,
industrial, materials, mechanical,
structural, and systems engineer.

3.  Aerospace engineering is largely about artifacts that fly – airplanes, rockets,
satellites, missiles, etc.
 It is also about how fluids flow about control systems, and about how strong things
are. Aerospace engineering also deals with how to design things so that they can be
reliably built and maintained.
 Aerospace engineers design, develop, and test aircraft, spacecraft, and missiles,
and supervise their manufacture. Those who work with aircraft are called aeronautical
engineers, and those working specifically with spacecraft are called astronautical
engineers.
 Aerospace engineers develop new technologies for use in aviation, defense
systems, and space exploration, often specializing in areas such as structures,
propulsion systems, vehicle movement and control, communications, and overall
vehicle design.
 They also may specialize in a particular type of aerospace product, such as
commercial aircraft, military fighter jets, helicopters, spacecraft, or missiles and
rockets, and may become experts in aerodynamics, thermodynamics, celestial
mechanics, propulsion, acoustics, or guidance and control systems.

4.  Agricultural engineering is the engineering discipline that applies engineering
science and technology to agricultural production and processing. Agricultural
engineering combines the disciplines of animal biology, plant biology,
and mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering principles with a
knowledge of agricultural principles.
 Agricultural engineers may perform tasks as planning, supervising and managing
the building of dairy effluent schemes, irrigation, drainage, flood and water control
systems, perform environmental impact
assessments, agricultural product processing and interpret research results and
implement relevant practices. A large percentage of agricultural engineers work in
academia or for government agencies such as the United States Department of
Agriculture or state agricultural extension services. Some are consultants,
employed by private engineering firms, while others work in industry, for
manufacturers of agricultural machinery, equipment, processing technology, and
structures for housing livestock and storing crops. Agricultural engineers work in
production, sales, management, research and development, or applied science.

5.  Avionics is a term used to describe all of
the electronic systems used
on aircraft, artificial satellites and spacecraft.
 Avionic systems
include communications, navigation, the
display and management of multiple systems
and the hundreds of systems that are fitted to
aircraft to meet individual roles. These can be
as simple as a searchlight for a police
helicopter or as complicated as the tactical
system for an airborne early warning platform.

6.  Chemical engineering is the branch of engineering that deals
with physical science (e.g., chemistry and physics), and life
sciences (e.g., biology, microbiology and biochemistry)
with mathematics and economics, to the process of converting
raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms. In
addition, modern chemical engineers are also concerned with
pioneering valuable new materials and related techniques – which
are often essential to related fields such as nanotechnology, fuel
cells and biomedical engineering. Within chemical engineering,
two broad subgroups include design, manufacture, and operation
of plants and machinery in industrial chemical and related
processes and development of new or adapted substances for
products ranging from foods and beverages to cosmetics to
cleaners to pharmaceutical ingredients, among many other
products.

7.  Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that
deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the
physical and naturally built environment, including works
like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering
is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and
it was defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military
engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines
including environmental engineering, geotechnical
engineering, structural engineering, transportation
engineering, municipal or urban engineering, water resources
engineering, materials engineering, coastal
engineering, surveying, and construction engineering. Civil
engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from
municipal through to national governments, and in the private
sector from individual homeowners through to international
companies.

8.  Computer engineering, also called computer systems engineering, is
a discipline that integrates several fields of electrical
engineering and computer science required to develop computer
systems. Computer engineers usually have training in electronic
engineering software design, and hardware-software integration instead
of only software engineering or electronic engineering. Computer
engineers are involved in many hardware and software aspects of
computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal
computers, and supercomputers, to circuit design. This field of
engineering not only focuses on how computer systems themselves work,
but also how they integrate into the larger picture.
 Usual tasks involving computer engineers include writing software
and firmware for embedded microcontrollers, designing VLSI chips,
designing analog sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and
designing operating systems. Computer engineers are also suited
for robotics research, which relies heavily on using digital systems to
control and monitor electrical systems like motors, communications,
and sensors.

9.  Electrical engineering is a field of engineering that generally deals with
the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism.
The field first became an identifiable occupation in the late nineteenth
century after commercialization of the electric telegraph and electrical
power supply. It now covers a range of subtopics
including power, electronics, control systems, signal
processing and telecommunications.
 Electrical engineering may include electronic engineering. Where a
distinction is made, usually outside of the United States, electrical
engineering is considered to deal with the problems associated with large-
scale electrical systems such as power transmission and motor control,
whereas electronic engineering deals with the study of small-scale
electronic systems including computers and integrated
circuits. Alternatively, electrical engineers are usually concerned with
using electricity to transmit energy, while electronic engineers are
concerned with using electricity to process information. More recently, the
distinction has become blurred by the growth of power electronics.

10.  Environmental engineering is the application of science and engineering principles to improve
the natural environment to provide healthy water, air, and land for human habitation and for other
organisms, and to remediate polluted sites. It involves waste water management and air
pollution control, recycling, waste disposal, radiation protection, industrial hygiene, environmental
sustainability, and public health issues as well as a knowledge of environmental engineering law.
It also includes studies on the environmental impact of proposed construction projects.
 Environmental engineers conduct hazardous-waste management studies to evaluate the
significance of such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to
prevent mishaps. Environmental engineers also design municipal water supply and industrial
wastewater treatment systems as well as address local and worldwide environmental issues such
as the effects of acid rain, global warming, ozone depletion, water pollution and air pollution
from automobile exhausts and industrial sources. At many universities, Environmental
Engineering programs follow either the Department of Civil Engineering or The Department
of Chemical Engineering at Engineering faculties. Environmental "civil" engineers focus on
hydrology, water resources management, bioremediation, and water treatment plant design.
Environmental "chemical" engineers, on the other hand, focus on environmental chemistry,
advanced air and water treatment technologies and separation processes.
 Additionally, engineers are more frequently obtaining specialized training in law and are utilizing
their technical expertise in the practices of Environmental engineering law. About four percent of
environmental engineers go on to obtain Board Certification in their specialty area(s) of
environmental engineering
 Most jurisdictions also impose licensing and registration requirements.

11.  Food engineering is a multidisciplinary field of applied physical sciences which
combines science, microbiology, and engineering education for food and related
industries. Food engineering includes, but is not limited to, the application
of agricultural engineering, mechanical engineering and chemical
engineering principles to food materials. Food engineers provide the technological
knowledge transfer essential to the cost-effective production and commercialization
of food products and services.
 Food engineering is a very wide field of activities. Prospective major employers for
food engineers include companies involved in food processing, food machinery,
packaging, ingredient manufacturing, instrumentation, and control. Firms that
design and build food processing plants, consulting firms, government agencies,
pharmaceutical companies, and health-care firms also hire food engineers. Among
its domain of knowledge and action are:
 research and development of new foods, biological and pharmaceutical products
 development and operation of manufacturing, packaging and distributing systems
for drug/food products
 design and installation of food/biological/pharmaceutical production processes
 design and operation of environmentally responsible waste treatment systems
 marketing and technical support for manufacturing plants.

12.  Genetic engineering, also called genetic
modification, is the direct human manipulation
of an organism's genome using modern DNA
technology. It involves the introduction
of foreign DNA or synthetic genes into the
organism of interest. The introduction of new
DNA does not require the use of
classical genetic methods, however
traditional breeding methods are typically used
for the propagation of recombinant organisms.

13.  Industrial engineering is a branch of engineering dealing with
the optimization of complex processes or systems. It is concerned
with the development, improvement, implementation and
evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge,
information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis,
as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together
with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify,
predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such
systems or processes. Its underlying concepts overlap
considerably with certain business-oriented disciplines such as
operations management, but the engineering side tends to
emphasize extensive mathematical proficiency and usage of
quantitative methods.

14.  Materials science is an interdisciplinary field applying
the properties of matter to various areas
of science and engineering. This scientific field
investigates the relationship between the structure of
materials at atomic or molecular scales and their
macroscopic properties. It incorporates elements
of applied physics and chemistry. With significant media
attention focused on nanoscience and nanotechnology in
recent years, materials science has been propelled to
the forefront at many universities. It is also an important
part of forensic engineering and failure analysis.
Materials science also deals with fundamental
properties and characteristics of materials.

15.  Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that
applies the principles of physics and materials science for
analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance
of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that
involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power
for the design, production, and operation of machines and tools. It
is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.
 The engineering field requires an understanding of core concepts
including mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, materials
science, and structural analysis. Mechanical engineers use these
core principles along with tools like computer-aided
engineering and product lifecycle management to design and
analyze manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and
machinery, heating and cooling
systems, transport systems, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical
devices and more.

16.  Structural engineering is a field of engineering dealing with the analysis and
design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering is usually
considered a specialty within civil engineering, but it can also be studied in its own
right. Structural engineers are most commonly involved in the design of buildings
and large nonbuilding structures but they can also be involved in
the design of machinery, medical equipment, vehicles or any item where structural
integrity affects the item's function or safety. Structural engineers must ensure their
designs satisfy given design criteria, predicated on safety (e.g. structures must not
collapse without due warning) or serviceability and performance (e.g. building sway
must not cause discomfort to the occupants). Buildings are made to endure
massive loads as well as changing climate and natural disasters.
 Structural engineering theory is based upon physical laws and empirical knowledge
of the structural performance of different landscapes and materials. Structural
engineering design utilizes a relatively small number of basic structural elements to
build up structural systems that can be very complex. Structural engineers are
responsible for making creative and efficient use of funds, structural elements and
materials to achieve these goals.

17.  Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary field
of engineering focusing on how complex engineering
projects should be designed and managed over
their life cycles. Issues such as logistics, the
coordination of different teams, and automatic control
of machinery become more difficult when dealing with
large, complex projects. Systems engineering deals
with work-processes and tools to manage risks on such
projects, and it overlaps with both technical and
human-centered disciplines such as control
engineering, industrial engineering, organizational
studies, and project management.

18.  An architect is a person trained in the planning, design and oversight of
the construction of buildings. To practice architecture means to offer or
render services in connection with the design and construction of a
building, or group of buildings and the space within the site surrounding
the buildings, that have as their principal purpose human occupancy or
use.[1] Etymologically, architect derives from the Latin architectus, itself
derived from the Greek arkhitekton (arkhi-, chief + tekton, builder),
i.e. chief builder.[2]
 Professionally, an architect's decisions affect public safety, and thus an
architect must undergo specialized training consisting of advanced
education and a practicum (or internship) for practical experience to earn
a license to practice architecture. The practical, technical, and academic
requirements for becoming an architect vary by jurisdiction (see below).
 The terms architect and architecture are also used in the disciplines
of landscape architecture, naval architecture and often information
technology (for example a software architect). In most of the world's
jurisdictions, the professional and commercial uses of the terms
"architect" and "landscape architect" are legally protected.
