Engineering

Engineering is about problem solving and design. Engineers can work in a variety of fields: computers, chemistry, automotive, aeronautics, civil, petroleum, nuclear.

Engineers apply math and physics and other branches of science to create new things in our world: automobiles, artificial hearts, computer hardware, even our bridges and highways.
