Introduction to Engineering What Do Engineers Do?

What is S cience? What is T echnology? What is E ngineering? What is M athematics? What is STEM ?

Scientists Investigate our natural world Technologists Apply science and math to designs Mathematicians Use numbers and symbols to solve problems Engineers Create our designed world STEM Working together to solve problems based on societal needs and wants

How are they all needed to Create a Product? ExampleScienceTechnologyEngineeringMath PencilDiscovery of graphite and the fact that rubber (eraser) will remove graphite Creating a writing device that doesn’t use ink Designing a device with graphite insert, exterior holder, and attached eraser What is the optimal length, diameter, or shape for the device?

What are our human needs? Problems That Solve Our Needs and Wants PHYSICAL NEEDS: Basic shelter Basic clothing Can you think of more? BIOLOGICAL NEEDS: Water Food Can you think of more? PSYCHOLOGICAL NEEDS: Family Friends Can you think of more?

What are our human wants? PHYSICAL WANTS: Nice house Nice car Nice clothes Can you think of more? BIOLOGICAL WANTS: Fresh water Fancy food Healthy living Can you think of more? PSYCHOLOGICAL WANTS: Talk with family See friends Entertainment Can you think of more? Problems That Solve Our Needs and Wants

Engineering Engineering uses scientific, technological, and mathematical knowledge to solve practical problems.

Engineers Can Do Anything Invent – Develop a new product, system, or process that has never existed before Innovate – Improve an existing technological product, system, or method Create Build Conceive Design Evaluate Analyze Orchestrate Invent Improve

An electrical engineer may design a GPS for your vehicle. A pharmaceutical/chemical engineer may find a cure for disease. A computer engineer may build a computer the size of your watch. A mechanical engineer may create a robot to discover water on a planet. An agricultural engineer may evaluate the effects of global warming on food production. Engineers Work to Solve Many Kinds of Problems Engineers make our lives better

Discussion Questions What product or system would make your life better? Is this an invention or an innovation? What type(s) of engineer(s) might work on this project?
