Defining Engineering

March 21, 2016 by kaleobbusmann Leave a Comment

Every morning, many of us wake up and travel to work with various modes of transportation. We travel in cars, bicycles, trains, buses, and other miscellaneous vehicles. Some go to school, others work and the rest do various things through out the day. I can continue on to name different things we all do through out the day, and every single thing is affected by engineering. Engineering can be defined as a branch of science that incorporates science and technology to create practically anything. In this course we have talked about various structures, including bridges, historical and religious buildings, and other various architect through the centuries. All of the ingenuity and thinking that went into the creation of these structures deals with engineering. Two particular structures we analyzed were the Golden Gate Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge. Both were huge accomplishments in the field of engineering and they show the technological advances that engineering has made over time.
