ENGR 101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Radioactive Contamination, Environmental Engineering, Intellectual Property
Document Summary
The science of air flight (aeronautics) / science of space flight (astronautics) Specialize in design, testing, and production of aircrafts, missiles, and spacecrafts. Design artificial limbs/organs, medical instruments, and new treatments for disease. Study chemical synthesis and biology -> make new materials, energy systems, and medicine. Design and construct buildings, bridges, tunnels, and transportation systems. Specialties: construction, environmental, transportation, structural, geotechnical, water resource, urban planners. Use science of electricity to make electronic systems to serve two main functions: transmission of power and of information. Work on projects that keep the water, air, and soil healthy. Design, install, and improve systems that integrate people, materials, and machines to improve efficiency. One of the largest and the most versatile branch of engineering. Apply the laws of physics for mechanical design, control,manufacturing, or energy/power. Test the durability and reliability of the product. Simulate instances and environments in which a product would be used. Where the largest number of engineers are employed.
