What is Engineering?
What is chemical engineering?
What is mechanical engineering?
In simple terms, mechanical engineers got us moving.
From the invention of the wheel to the advancement in engines, they’re how we can get to places and explore the world – whether that’s by land, sea or air.
But that’s just the tip of the aircraft propeller, so to speak...
They’re also pioneers in everything from renewable energy structures to modern-day robotics, constantly pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
What is electronic and electrical engineering?
Sounds obvious but if it uses electricity, it’s probably been designed by an electrical engineer.
But even Alexander Bell himself could probably never have predicted that the telephone would evolve into something we all couldn’t live without now.
In this modern age of technological advancement, electronics have become invaluable in almost every aspect of our lives.
From the smart devices we use to the software that literally keeps airplanes in the air, the innovations in this field are truly remarkable – with scope for much more in the future.
What is civil engineering?
Bridges, buildings, roads – civil engineers are known for developing the infrastructure we see everywhere.
But beyond that, they’re also responsible for creating clean water and sewerage systems that we all so heavily rely on.
Using the innovations in computer science and AI has helped launch civil engineers and architects into the future – being able to design sustainable solutions and predict their effectiveness without harming the built and natural environment we live in.
