Pursuing A Career And Environmental Engineering

I believe engineering is the path to a better world. My interest in engineering really took hold when I joined the FIRST Robotics Club (Tractor Technicians) as a Sophomore and made the drive team: a drive team consists of four teammates who represent their club on the competition floor. We built, programmed, and tested our robot for months. The most incredible part of this experience was witnessing a single hand on a keyboard control our entire robot that I helped build. The intensity of the competition can be compared to that of a soccer game. However, instead of sprinting and kicking, we use our minds and engineering principles to analyze the situation and fix or improve issues that present themselves. Similarly, I would like to apply this trouble shooting mentality to more important issues. After robotics, I took the initiative to pursue an online computer science class. This class has proven to be more challenging than I anticipated, however, the growth I have seen in myself is exceptional. This rewarding experience has increased my interest in the field of engineering. I have also taken the opportunity to get real-world experience through a work study program in the IT/IS department on Kwajalein. I assist technicians in the field as we repair and replace computers and printers. These experiences and relationships have widened my perspective of the engineering and technology

The way I see it with the constant problems we have surrounding our earth, a career involving the environment will always be increasing in the jobs demand. With the problems we have here today, such as our ice caps melting, meteors getting crashed into us, our sun potentially exploding, or our ozone layer simply evaporating, I hope I will be someone who can contribute to stopping a disaster such as those from happening. I don’t know much of the career I would have to go into to begin these goals of mine, but I do know that all these different careers involve a lot of studies, and classes like environmental studies, and other science classes.

In an effort to bring brevity and clarity to this statement, I will forego the traditional introduction; please excuse this. I wish to fully use the space to explain my qualifications for engineering through my erudition, my social skills, and my home life.

My exposure in the field of engineering can be traced back to my high school days. Not only did I take science classes such as physics, but I was also a member of two engineering clubs which taught numerous material outside the school’s curriculum. With that

My education and work experience have been great preparation for a career in this field. Engineering, by nature, requires strong analytical and problem solving skills. Even outside the classroom, I have learned to look at a situation and break it down systematically. Sometimes when a direct solution is not possible, an optimal alternative or repurpose is appropriate. For example, I worked

Even in my youth, I was concerned about the environment and humanity’s impact upon it. That concern developed into an ardent passion to fix or mitigate the issues we are bringing to our world. Thus my resolution to become an environmental engineer was born. However, most schools do not offer this program, and it has considerably narrowed my options. My search has led me to Rensselaer, the first college to establish an accredited Environmental Engineering program. While visiting Rensselaer, I spoke with an environmental engineer major, and she described her research and internship experiences. She specifically mentioned class lessons devoted to water quality. I have been doing research on this topic for the past two years and find it fascinating. Therefore, I was glad to see that I could use class instruction to build upon my prior knowledge. During

However, while many small efforts are necessary, large changes can be accomplished when individuals have the intent, knowledge, skills, and credentials to initiate, plan, and carry out projects designed to solve these issues. Environmental Studies would prepare me to be one of those people. After completing my degree I will be able to participate in efforts to solve many of the environmental problems Hawaii now faces.

It is especially important for environmental engineers to stay up with the latest advancements as it allows a more efficient way of protecting the environment as well as to give the client the best possible solution to their problem. Lifelong learning not only leads to a better environment, it also leads to adaptability among workers in new situations, increased competitiveness within the job sector and personal development.

Those who want to work for the EPA can choose a natural science degree, like in biology and chemistry, or a technical degree, such as statistics and environmental engineering. For example, environmental engineers usually have a bachelor's degree in civil or chemical engineering. These students study ecosystem processes, organic contaminants, alternative energy, quality control

The Personal Environmental Occupational Model (PEO) helps therapists focuses on the ability for a client to efficiently complete their daily occupations and to have the proper environment in which always them to be successful. When using the PEO model the client is active, progressive and inspired to complete and partake in their occupations. A person’s occupations are made of the activities in which the person finds important in partaking in throughout their daily life. Adaptations and assistive devices are important to incorporate when improving one’s environment. The article specifically focuses on the environment and adaptations in which can be made and created for clients in the ICU. It is important that the practioner considers the

Jobs require many things, for example,Industrial engineering deals with the organization of materials, people, and equipment in the production process. Environmental engineering is a field that has and manages the public's demand for clean air and water and listens to their concerns over the damage being done to the earth and ecological systems from pollution. Architectural engineering is closely related to architecture. Whereas architecture emphasizes the aesthetics, design and function of the built

Engineering is an exciting field that I believe will be enjoyable, challenging, and above all, intuiting to undertake at university. I believe pursuing engineering means exceeding your expectations and making a

I feel greatly pleased in presenting myself as Environmental Engineering student. It was the first time I had seen a board with slogan ‘Garbage is Penny', when I was in grade five. My childhood brain could not understand the chemistry behind garbage being money. Following basic the concept of compost manure, I then realized garbage can be converted into money if recycled as compost manure.

As mentioned above, it is very important for engineers to understand their own responsibilities. In 1960, the Conference of Engineering Societies of Western Europe and the United States of America defined "professional engineer" as follows:1 “A professional engineer is competent by virtue of his/her fundamental education and training to apply the scientific method and outlook to the analysis

Obstacles had never been obstructing my effort to succeed in life. As an engineer to be, it is important to me to be prepared for the hurdles in the real world. The world nowadays needs a person who could compete and has great abilities to stand on the same level as others. Multiple skills and critical opinion of an issue are essential for an engineer to jump into this challenging career. For me, a strategic planning and full preparation need to achieve the aim of being an expert engineer.
