6. The 7 sectors we will look at are:

7. Aerospace engineering is concerned with the research, design, development, construction, testing, science and technology of aircraft and spacecraft. It is divided into two major and overlapping branches: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCGx-HnvqGA

8. Automotive engineering is a branch of vehicle engineering, incorporating elements of mechanical, electrical, electronic, software and safety engineering as applied to the design, manufacture and operation of motorcycles, automobiles, buses and trucks and their respective engineering subsystems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zll4xq-PPs

9. is the application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology for healthcare purposes. This field seeks to close the gap between engineering and medicine: It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biological sciences to advance healthcare treatment.

10. is a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.

11. is an engineering discipline that brings together electrical engineering with computer science to enhance telecommunication systems. The work ranges from basic circuit design to mass developments. A Telecommunication engineer is responsible for designing and overseeing the installation of telecommunications equipment and facilities, such as complex electronic switching systems, copper wire telephone facilities, and fiber optics. Telecommunication engineering also overlaps heavily with broadcast engineering.

12. is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of physics and materials for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.

13. is the branch of engineering that applies the physical sciences chemistry and physics and/or life sciences biology, microbiology and biochemistry together with mathematics to convert raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms.
