I interviewed two people: an engineer with decades of experience, Roland Schneider, and an engineer with only a few years of experience, Jacob Carrano (my brother). Having two perspectives was beneficial because the commonalities solidified the important rules of writing as an engineer, while differences highlighted how writing can be different for an upper-level vs. low-level employee. Roland and Jacob said they mainly write email, work protocols, reports, and notes (during meetings, on drawings

Profiles of Engineers The purpose of this paper was to interview a professional engineer worker in my field of interest, which was computer science. The individual I chose was a male named Jimmy. I chose this individual because we shared similar experiences with a common goal. He inspires me to not give up when school gets tough, because this is just a small obstacle that everyone faces and those who choose to get up and push will achieve greatness. This individual is passionate and happy about
relationship between a chemical engineer and his job? It’s pure chemistry! Chemical engineers work with chemicals to develop new products. They may engineer a more efficient source of fuel. When engineering this, they would calculate emissions that are released when the fuel is used. Chemical engineers go through a lot of schooling and training, have high salaries, can find jobs all over the country, and their job has both benefits and downfalls. Chemical engineers go through a lot of schooling
Mechanical Engineers (ASME) code of ethics, the core values are satisfactory, but I believe there is room for improvement. The code of ethics is broad and all encompassing. This is good for Mechanical Engineers because they can venture into many fields, but leaves many of the codes up for interpretation. For example, an engineer working in the renewable energy industry might interpret “environmental impact” in rule number eight differently than someone working in a refinery. The engineer working in
Every human being has their own career aspirations and mine is to be a Electrical engineer, a dream that I held ever since I was in school due to my deep interest in technical fields such as electrical and electronics. Although, electrical engineer is a difficult career to achieve because it have many obstacles and challenges to be met, but I am sure that I am able to make full preparations for the realization of my dreams. The main preparation I need to prepare is knowledge. Knowledge in Electrical
My love for solving problems is one of the main reasons why I want to become an engineer. Out of all the jobs in the world, I feel that engineering is one of the jobs that makes the most impact. I be creative while making a difference. I originally wanted to go into software engineering, but I’m actually still not quite sure. That is why I am taking this class. I want to know about all the different kinds of engineering before I decide which path to take. It was very hard for me to decide on a career
The Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) The USACE is a vast branch of the army made up of over 37,000 personnel both civilian and military. with the mission to "Deliver vital public and military engineering services; partnering in peace and war to strengthen our Nation's security, energize the economy and reduce risks from disasters." The corps’ most notable areas of work include; designing and building dams and other flood control measures throughout the United States, building military facilities,
“Can one think that because we are engineers, beauty does not preoccupy us or that we do not try to build beautiful, as well as solid and long lasting structures? Aren’t the genuine functions of strength always in keeping with unwritten conditions of harmony?’(Gustave Eiffel) Gustave Eiffel and James Watt as well as many other engineers, have changed the world we live in by the structures they have designed and the inventions that they have built. Both Gustave Eiffel and James Watt have impacted
few decades. These engineering marvels are the epitome of ingenuity and they mark the success of the human race and engineers in specific. As a law of progress, even these successes towards the betterment of mankind were once met with an equally devastating failure or more commonly termed as engineering failures or engineering disasters. It is the duty and obligation of an engineer to respond to a need by building, creating or inventing something
Introduction “Engineering is a form of art and has filled the world with things of obvious visual beauty but also with subtle forms” –Louis Brown. Everything that surrounds us has been critically designed to perfection after many iterations of trial and error. Engineering is all about creating or designing a project and failing. Yes, I said failing. What I mean by this is that every project is exposed to defects, but the real learning experience comes from acknowledging your mistakes and revising
Hello everyone, My name is Dhruv Aggarwal and I am a third y ear Mechatronics Engineering and Management student studying at McMaster University. Today I am here to discuss one of the most important aspects of engineering design that I am a strong believe of. Leadership in Energy and Environment Design also known as LEED. I am here to tell everyone the important of LEED accreditation, how LEED accreditation helps our society and how one can become accredited. To begin, what is LEED? LEED by definition
Being aware in the latest technology is important for me as engineer. My weakness that technology for me can affect my time management because I lose track of time. 3. Critical thinking and problem solving (a) Definition Critical thinking is the most important core competency. It is the ability to think and solve
In this and recent generations, the engineer stereotype can include calculating, cold, and sometimes greedy attributes (especially petroleum engineers). Some view the occupation 's activities as pinching pennies, making the most acceptably flimsy product, all while dodging regulations and trying to squeeze the most profit from an enterprise. It would be understandable to think of these as a selfish sort of people until the train enters the tunnel. Things go dark as you soar 100 miles an hour into
Here I discuss whether business professionals may perform actions otherwise considered morally wrong. This requires for their role to come with special moral permissions. I approach this problem by investigating how role morality relates to ordinary morality and whether conflicts between the two arise for special permissions to try to resolve. I shall argue to the contrary: that there is no distinction between role and ordinary morality by attacking the various proposed justifications for role moral
A software engineer develops computer software, they apply engineering principles to every stage of the development process to create customized systems for individual clients. Software engineering is considered to be for those who enjoy technical and scientific topics
Incidentally, engineers can use virtues such as competence, honesty, and temperance in order to attain a state of responsible professionalism. This status essentially parallels some of the claims listed in the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Engineering Code of Ethics such as the statement “an engineer, in the fulfillment of their professional duties, shall hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public” (NSPE, 2007). With an inherent desire to be virtuous, engineers can learn
Engineers are the one who apply science and their knowledge into real life that help to improve technology and makes a great contribution to the society. Thus, it helps to improve our life standard. Engineers are one of the significant roles to develop a city, a state and even a country. Other than development of a country, engineers also play a fundamental role in facilitating the functioning of modern society. They facilitates through the connection and protecting of society. They link the whole

THE FUNCTION OF ENGINEERS IN PROTECTING THE SOCIETY 1. MEANING OF ENGINEERING We often use the words “science and technology” for engineering. what can be done by engineers with science and technology? Researchers think about it and do some research which resulted in the understanding that engineering is about planning and designing something that helps society by regulating science and technology. This does not mean that science is engineering. Engineering is about creating something
