2
What Kind of An Engineer Am I? A Friendly Competition
3
3 I did the process design of the Space Shuttle Environmental Control System to make sure the astronauts have clean air onboard Chemical Engineer
4
4 Electrical Engineer I design and improve data collection devices, such as this Space Travelling Wave Tube that orbits Saturn.
5
5 Chemical Engineer I design and supervise the manufacturing of the paper used for the ticker tape parade for the Apollo astronauts.
6
6 Mechanical Engineer I design the technology for harnessing renewable energy sources, such as wind turbines, wave energy converters, and ground source heat pumps.
7
7 Computer Scientist I built your laptop with better graphics, faster loading, and more memory.
8
8 Chemical Engineer I designed the system that purifies and recycles the water on the Space Shuttle
9
9 Computer Scientist I created World of Warcraft, Mario, Microsoft Word, and Solitaire.
10
10 Mechanical Engineer Not only do I design and build the shuttle’s engine, but I improve the engine’s efficiency so that the shuttle has to carry less fuel.
11
11 Computer Scientist I designed a computer network that can monitor and controls all of the shuttle’s electronic equipment.
12
12 I design safe and efficient processes to manufacture drugs Chemical Engineer
13
13 Electrical Engineer I design the communication system between the shuttle and Mission Control, which includes a 60 ft. radio antenna, multiple satellites, and the ground and on- board equipment.
14
14 Mechanical Engineer I’m responsible for ventilating, heating, and air-conditioning this building.
15
15 Civil Engineer I designed and built the rocket gantry, which supports the shuttle during launch.
16
16 I designed the plant that made the synthetic fiber used to make the Space Shuttle’s parachute and space suits Chemical Engineer
17
17 Civil Engineer I am helping to create Chicago’s Deep Tunnel Project, a system of temporary water- holding reservoirs that will help prevent the risk of flooding and reduce the harmful effects of sewage dumped into Lake Michigan.
18
18 Electrical Engineer I link all of the shuttle’s electronic equipment to the operating computers so that astronauts can control shuttle operations from the Control Deck at the push of a button.
19
19 Computer Scientist I make microchips and microprocessors smaller and smaller and smaller.
20
20 Civil Engineer I designed and built the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The bridge is 4,200 ft. long and can withstand 60 mph winds.
21
21 I designed the fuel cell that powers the space shuttle Chemical Engineer
22
22 Computer Scientist I design the user interface on the shuttle’s computers to convert the complicated electrical signals from the controls into data, prompts, warnings, and commands displayed clearly on a screen.
23
23 Computer Scientist I’m responsible for your computer’s operating system.
24
24 I design, develop, and supervise the process to make billions of Pringles, all exactly the same shape and texture Chemical Engineer
25
25 Mechanical Engineer I design and build cars, as well as heavy equipment and airplanes.
26
26 Electrical Engineer I’m responsible for the growing switch from landlines to cell phones.
27
27 Civil Engineer I plan and build roads and highways that allow 128 million cars to travel 2.5 trillion miles per year in the U.S.
28
28 Electrical Engineer I provide the world with electrical lighting.
29
29 I design the plants that make the pure hydrogen and oxygen used by the space shuttle’s rockets Chemical Engineer
30
30 Computer Scientist I design programming languages such as Fortran and C++. Thanks to my improvements, you don’t have to type in binary.
