ENGINEERING BY: ASHTON HERD

WHAT IS AN ENGINEER?  Engineers explore problems of society and try to fix them  These problems can be big or small  Engineers try to make modern technology more efficient and less costly

MEDICAL ROBOTS  Medical robots are being developed to perform operations and can be potentially more accurate and consistent than human doctors

SOLAR PANELS  Engineers are working on ways to make solar panels more efficient and less costly so that they can be used by a wider range of people

ELEPHANT PROSTHETIC  Engineers have developed a prosthetic leg for an elephant who lost his leg by stepping on a land mine

KETCHUP BOTTLE LINING  Engineers from MIT have developed a lining for condiment bottles that makes sure all of the contents slide out of the bottle.

TYPES OF ENGINEERS  Aeronautical- Flying  Agricultural- Farming  Building- Build  Mechanical- Engines and mechanical systems  Mining- Coal and natural gases  Chemical- Works with chemicals

ENGINEERING SCHOOLS (2015) 2

CONCLUSION  Engineers solve our world’s problems and make technology more efficient  Engineers follow a series of steps to solve problems  Engineers can solve big or little problems of society  There are many different types of engineers that focus on solving different problems  The top 3 engineering schools predicted for 2015 are MIT(1), Stanford(2), and Berkeley(3)
