What is Engineering?

Engineering is an occupation that applies science and mathematics to solve problems. Engineers are scientists as well as inventors, swingers, and builders. They figure out how things work and are essential when it comes to improving modern innovations and infrastructure that we enjoy today. They make life easier by making inventions and innovations available to people.

Engineers are at the forefront of designing and developing products and systems. They also evaluate, test, modify, install, maintain, and innovate products and systems to ensure that they work effectively and efficiently. Additionally, engineers are also expected to recommend and specify materials, supervise manufacturing/construction, and conduct failure analysis. Some engineers who are more experienced move on to provide consulting services and teach engineering courses at tertiary institutions.
