REALMS OF ENGINEERING
1. Traditionally, engineering activities have been grouped into certain areas of specialization. These originated as civil and military engineering, catering to man’s early needs. Scientific discoveries and their development gave birth to a variety of fields of application such as mechanical, chemical, and electrical engineering. Today the rapid rise of technology is bringing the adequacy of even these widely accepted designations into question in describing specialist areas within engineering. Several of the more commonly accepted categories are described below.
2. Aerospace Engineering combines two fields, aeronautical and astronautical engineering. The former is concerned with the aerodynamics, structure and propulsion of vehicles designed for flight in the earth’s atmosphere. The latter relates to flight above the earth’s atmosphere and involves the design of rockets and space vehicles incorporating sophisticated propulsion, guidance and life support systems.
3. The Civil engineer is mainly employed in the creation of structures such as buildings, bridges, dams, highways, harbors and tunnels. He is usually knowledgeable in hydraulics, structures, building materials, surveying, and soil mechanics.
4. Industrial Engineering is mainly concerned with the manufacture of useful commodities from raw materials.
5. Mechanical Engineering develops machines for the generation and utilization of power.
6. Electrical Engineering deals with the creation, storage, transmission and utilization of electrical energy and information.
