ancestors virtually live in us” - James Nasmyth (Engineer, Inventor) My vehement desire to be an engineer was obvious - I was born in a family of engineers. My great grandfather, Hazura S Birdi was the 1st Indian electrical engineer in America. Thereafter, my grandfather was a machinist and my father is a civil engineer; Perhaps, my fascination towards science and technology is hereditary. Following their footsteps, I decided to become an engineer. Since childhood, I had a keen interest in technology
alone. I.) Civil Engineers always are needed for our growing population to build and maintain our waterways, sewer systems and roads to reliably support the population. II.) Civil Engineers have many opportunities and colleges to go to, most positions only need 4 years of college and possibly some experience. III.) Civil Engineer salaries have been growing since 2002, from a $48k normal pay to $55k+ for the average Civil Engineer. IV.) Employment opportunities for Civil Engineers differ from place
developed antennae of a fly containing different kinds of olfactory receptors allow the fly to use small amounts of smell for orientation towards resources like oviposition sites, food or mates. Scientists at one of the Chemical Ecology at Max Planck Institute in Jena Germany had used mutated flies and proved that the extremely sensitive olfactory system of the fruit flies. The flies can detect thousands of odor molecules para milliliter of air, but the human needs large size of the air to do so. This
Therefore, storage of this power is very important because it would enable people to always have power. So, solar energy is quite promising and with improvement it has the ability to replace fossil fuels which is one of the grand challenges for engineers. Currently,
dedication. The hard work of a prospective engineer can be shown in the benefits he receives upon entering the workforce. For example, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the starting salaries of engineers are among the highest in the nation (“Engineers”, 2012, para. 4). Good things come to those who work hard. Mechanical Engineering Information.com would agree in mentioning that because engineering is so applicable to everyday situations, engineers can find work almost anywhere (“Mechanical
